Pasture Raised Kid-Friendly Summer Break Meals
School’s out, the kids are bursting with energy, and suddenly the kitchen becomes the busiest place for parents: Endless snacks, the fifth “Mom, I’m hungry!” of the afternoon, and dinners that need to be on the table ASAP. The answer to nutritious, delicious meals little hands will love? A freezer stocked with staple proteins like pastured chicken, grass fed and finished beef, and corn and soy-free pork.
These staples do the heavy lifting in the kitchen, so meals become more nourishing (and less stressful), and you spend less time planning meals and more time enjoying this season of your kids’ lives.
Build Your Own Pizza (BYOP)
A little marinara sauce, mozzarella cheese, and pasture raised ground
pork sausage go a long way toward keeping the kids entertained with this
BYOP dish. The idea is simple and fun, letting your littles take the
lead in crafting their very own pie.
Ditch the store-bought
pepperoni with preservatives for farm-fresh, hormone- and
antibiotic-free ground pork sausage. After breaking the sausage into
smaller chunks and setting it aside, prep a few more toppings, like a
rainbow of chopped veggies, and you’ve got the start of a pizza party!
Bite-Sized Sliders
Makeshift backyard waterparks and street-view basketball games call for grab-and-go bites. These 85% lean, 15% fat grass fed farm beef
mini sliders are a great way to fill tummies with nourishing protein
from cattle-grazed, pastured beef. Pair your petite browned ground beef
patties with Hawaiian rolls, cheese slices, and toppings for a
sweet-and-savory kid-friendly rendition of an American classic.
If you’re feeling like “What’s a burger without fries?”, getting perfectly golden fries on the plate isn’t too difficult with a few ingredients. Heat grass fed and finished beef tallow in a pot, then add sliced, matchstick-length fries in small batches. Tallow’s high smoke point and clean flavor deliver a crispy exterior and a pillow-soft interior.
