It’s back! the The 13th annual Produce for Kids campaign kicked off April 24th and is featuring meal solutions, recipes and tips for families looking to embrace healthier eating habits.  This program runs through July and can be found both online and in select  nationwide grocery stores through July. Look for more than 200 registered dietitian-approved and family-tested recipes, meal planning tools for your home, and healthy tips from REAL parents (yes, we all get picky eaters)!

I always love how this campaign is fun, colorful, creative and eye-catchy for kids. Even better than it’s looks, it offers an amazing taste! Take a look at this Triple Berry Banana Boats recipe (and many other recipes) on their website!
