Lunch Box Power Pasta Salad

This thick, creamy dressing has a garlicky kick that becomes deliciously muted if served the next day in a lunch box. Substitute garlic powder if fresh garlic is undesired. Add additional vegetables of choice, diced small, to make the dish more colorful. Recipe by New England Dairy.

Beef and Lentil Meatloaf

Adding lentils instead of breadcrumbs to meatloaf holds it together and makes one pound of meat stretch a little further. Lentils add fiber, potassium, and iron, too!

Pumpkin Mac and Cheese

This homemade macaroni and cheese uses a can of pumpkin to give it a boost of fiber and a slightly earthy flavor. A seasonal treat rich in Vitamin A and fiber, it’s perfect for potlucks or a cozy night in.
