Thank you to National Frozen & Refrigerated Foods Association for sponsoring today’s post. All opinions are my own.
Easy Home Meals is like music to my ears. Trying to make dinner in my house is typically a challenge. With a one year old begging to be picked up while a two and three year old run run around or wrestle each other, it ends up taking me twice as long to make even simple meals. I try to find easy meals as often as possible to help me in the kitchen.
When I go grocery shopping, I am always filling my cart with a ton of products from the refrigerated dairy section. I can’t get through a day of meals without many food products found there. With three little ones, I go through about a gallon of milk a day, plus almost every meal I make calls for cheese, milk, or eggs. The refrigerated dairy section contains many staples that I stock up on weekly.
The National Frozen & Refrigerated Foods Association (NFRA) is bringing awareness to the benefits of the refrigerated dairy section and the healthy meals that are inspired from it. Not only are the above staples found here, but you also have cookie dough, sour cream, yogurt, chip dips, juices and so more. It has foods that are made from real, simple, farm-grown ingredients, and fit within a healthy balanced lifestyle. There is something there for every meal, including dessert and snacks.
Easy Home Meals
At least a few times a week, I am looking for inspiration for new meal ideas. Something easy that I can many in a pinch or on a hectic day. The NFRA has an amazing site, Easy Home Meals, that I can turn to when I need recipes, tips, or inspiration. They’ve also teamed up with chef and culinary expert, Aida Mollenkamp, to show how refrigerated dairy products has many culinary possiblities. More inspiration can be found on the NRFA’s food photo blog, The Dish Diary Tumblr. Just glancing through the photos makes me hungry!
