Chicken Quesadillas

Most parents try to eat healthy and kids end up with foods, like pasta with butter, chicken nuggets, hot dogs, etc. Eating the family meal teaches kids to eat veggies, fruits and proteins. The kids should not be taught that they have the power over what they eat, the parents do. If you give them the power at dinner, it will translate into other areas in their lives. No one has the time or energy to create a buffet service every night. Quesadillas are a quick and easy option that the whole family will enjoy!
