Kidfriendly Dip
Kids and adults will love this kid-friendly dip. It’s a good way to get your kids to eat their veggies. It’s easy for kids to grab a candy bar or a microwaveable processed food snack instead of eating a raw carrot or a piece of fruit. To encourage healthy eating, have cut-up carrots, celery, red and yellow peppers, apple slices and some grape tomatoes in zipper bags in the refrigerator as well as a bowl of this kid-friendly dip. When your kids come home from school or practice, it’s ready to eat. The grated Parmigiano Reggiano® cheese in this veggie dip provides protein and calcium so essential to the diet of growing children. A varied diet is one of the keys to good nutrition and this kid-friendly dip surrounded by veggies helps your kids to establish healthy eating habits.
