Frozen Family Fun

Kid-friendly, make-ahead meals

FAMILY FEATURES
s families look to
incorporate more
nutritious dishes into
Ameals from morning to
night, using kid-friendly recipes
can help make the process easier
and more fun.
To help make it easier for busy
parents to plan and serve healthier
meals, registered dietitian Melanie
Marcus, Dole’s nutrition and
health communications manager,
created a series of enchanted
frozen fruit- and vegetable-based
dishes including main courses,
smoothies, desserts, sides and
more. Because these recipes can
be made in advance and frozen for
later use, they’re perfect for on-the-
go families and busy lifestyles.
For example, these frozen
sandwiches make for an easy
grab-and-go breakfast while make-
ahead lasagna simplifies busy
evenings and banana split cups can
appease those dessert cravings.
These and other family-
friendly recipes are part of
Dole’s healthy-living alliance
with Disney’s Frozen 2. For
