Healthy and Delicious Family Dinners

Macaroni and Cheese, Please!
This comfort dish summons all our favorite memories of childhood.  Want to lighten it up for tonight?

• Adding chopped veggies to mac and cheese is a great way to boost fiber, according to nutrition expert Dr. Madelyn Fernstrom. Think peppers, broccoli or zucchini.
• Try a toothsome, whole-grain macaroni – you’ll fill up without hungrily diving in for seconds.
• Bake with low-fat milk and cheeses like cheddar, Monterey Jack or ricotta.
