Wholesome and Delicious Meals in a Snap

(Family Features) - Putting wholesome food on the table that your family will enjoy doesn't have to take hours to prepare. Registered Dietitian and author, Felicia Stoler, offers some simple recipes and tips on how to add more flavor and nutrition into your meals, making meal prep stress-free and fun for the family.

Keep your pantry stocked and plan ahead. A pasta meal typically takes less than thirty minutes to make. Ragú® Old World Style® Traditional pasta sauce now has a new, thicker recipe with two servings of vegetables in every half cup. Add some pre-cut fresh, frozen or canned greens as a side dish, and you have a veggie-packed meal.

Include your kids in the cooking process. This is a great way to spend quality time with your children and teach them the skill of cooking. They love to feel like they can contribute to their family, plus - many kids will eat what they make.

Use leftovers for lunch. The Ragú® No Frying Chicken Parmesan is a classic dish that will help you save time. After dinnertime, pack it in a small container or prepare in a hero sandwich for lunch the next day to make less work (and stress) for you in the morning.

Try these recipes with the new Ragú® Old World Style® Traditional pasta sauce, available in the pasta sauce aisle nationwide. For more tips and delicious recipes, visit www.ragu.com or www.facebook.com/ragusauce.
