Hy-Vee Recipes and Ideas

What kid doesn't ask for mac and cheese? We love this recipe because it's an excellent source of calcium and keeps portions in check.

By using the sheet pan method, you can make 6 baked sandwiches at once. Plus you don't need to butter the bread. 

We call this recipe Tailgate Sliders because it's ideal for a hungry crowd—including kids—and all the sandwiches get baked together in one shot. Score! 

Check it out, you can use wonton wrappers to make mini edible cups to fill with just about anything. Think taco filling, sloppy joes, or in this case, pizza.

Customize this one to be even healthier by using lean ground turkey and adding shredded carrots to the burger mixture. 

That's right. When sloppy joes meets tater tots in a casserole dish, you get the most irresistible kid food ever. We like to make this one with lean ground beef and sweet potato tots.

We recommend doubling this recipe if you've got half a dozen kids hanging out. Each batch makes about a dozen chicken tenders. And kids love them.

Instead of grabbing fast food burgers, try making these portion-controlled three-ingredient roll-ups. 

Keeping a bag of frozen meatballs in the freezer is never a bad idea when you have kids hanging around the house. Check out this saucy recipe.

Protein-packed and full of calcium, these mini meat loaves are the perfect entree size.
