Hy-Vee Recipes and Ideas

It’s one of those pastas that’s equally delicious whether it’s warm or chilled—perfect for lunchboxes.

Panzan-what? Sounds fancy, but it’s basically a crouton salad with fresh veggies. Try letting your kids decide which veggies they want...so they don't just eat the croutons. 

We like to toss this simple pasta with chilled shredded rotisserie chicken for a boost of protein. Also try it with whole grain penne, or a mix of whole grain and regular.

We discovered how delicious this was post Thanksgiving, but there's no reason not to eat it year-round. 

Surprisingly, these are just as tasty chilled as they are hot. It's nice to have options. 

It's the tuna salad sandwich kids—and everyone else—will actually like. 

A keeper for when you have to pack more than one lunch, one Chicken Salad Wrap is enough for two. 

When the old peanut butter sandwich and apple lunch needs a twist... 

Definitely a kid favorite, this quick-fix quesadilla makes a great hot or cold lunch or dinner. 

Let's not forget how much we all like cold pizza. But we especially like this one because it's high in fiber, which will help kids stay full.
