Finding kid approved meals always is a challenge in my household. Keeping the weekly menu of meals fun and different and secretly including veggies can be hard.
Recently Pampered Chef introduced a subscription programs called TasteBuds. When you subscribe to Taste Buds, each month you will receive 3 spice mixtures in individual ziplock packaging, 3 recipe cards for 3 meals using those spices along with 4 other meal options and alternatives for each spice. You can end-up creating up to 9 meals with 4 servings each, making this a very cost effective way of creating variety for the family. All of them take less than 45 minutes with prep-time, you can involve your kids in helping meaure and prep for the meals and create the lasting memories.
Here we tried 2 of the 3 Taste Bud Mixes from October 2020. We received the All Purpose Dill, Three Onion Rub and Seasoning Salt.
For the first meal and first spice we tried the Salmon Salad using the All Purpose Dill spice but changed it up from the recipe card. Since my kids are not fond of onions, took that off and instead of a traditional salad, I changed it to a kale salad since it was on sale at my local grocery store.

Other side options and ideas for the All Purpose Dill Mix include: Dill Carrots, Dill Chip Dip, Quick Dill Compund Butter
For the second meal and second spice we tried the Pasta with Vegetables and followed the complete recipe but instead of fettuccine noodles I used regular spaghetti noodles. As mom, you learn quickly to modify with what you have at home so you don't take another trip and spend more money. .
