As parents we try to think positive when packing our kids lunches-- each of us hoping that our kids won’t trade away what we’ve packed! The Balancing act and Bolthouse Farms have come up with some not only great tasting, but healthy snacking ideas—and some innovative ways to hold off the “day traders”. Tune in October 5th on the Lifetime Channel. (EST/PST)
The Balancing Act and Bolthouse Farms are excited to have the winning chef from the TV show Top Chef New York—Hosea Rosenberg. Hosea is also the Executive Chef at Jax Fish House in Boulder Colorado. Chef Hosea says, “We know that too much sugar, salt and fat are unhealthy for anyone – options like cookies and cakes are just empty calories. They can contribute to obesity, diabetes, and a host of other health problems. The challenge is always to find snacks and lunch items for our kids that are both healthy and delicious. Carrots are a great idea.”
Bolthouse Farms knows that carrots are an excellent source of antioxidants, and are the richest vegetable source of beta carotene. Beta Carotene is a powerful antioxidant that helps slow the aging process, promotes good vision, and is a great source of fiber.
Chef Hosea agrees, and also knows that kids love baby cut carrots. Bolthouse Farms brand is always a great choice. Their 100% natural carrots are grown to produce the sweetest and most delicious “tender-crunchy” carrots possible-- making them a real treat for the kids! Make sure you tune into The Balancing Act as Chef Hosea shares his awesome Kids Carrot Mac N Cheese recipe!
Another great benefit for your kids is that Bolthouse Farms baby cut carrots also come in cool snack sized packs!
