Whole Wheat Kraft Dinner

Kraft DinnerThe one day I pick up the kids from school for lunch and it’s raining…great. There isn’t enough time to be creative, nor spend a lot of time at the stove, so today it’s all about convenience. Growing up my sister was hooked on Kraft Dinner and my mom always made sure to have a couple of boxes on hand. I, on the other hand, have never been a fan of Kraft Dinner or any other prepared mac and cheese brand. My children, however, are big fans of “the real kind you get in the box”. Last week when I was grocery shopping I noticed that Kraft now carries two whole wheat varieties of the traditional Kraft Dinner, white and orange cheddar. So I picked up a box to give it a try. The 100% whole wheat pasta justified my convenience food purchase. Rolled up ham, a few cherry tomatoes, sliced cucumber, and a handful of mini carrots and we had a well-balanced lunch. All four of the kids devoured their mac and cheese and claimed to enjoy it just as much as the original (even when I mentioned it was made with whole wheat pasta). It’s definitely a healthier convenience lunch food option.
What are you serving your kids for lunch?
