jns131 personally I DO use canned foods always have always will. My kids liked it and now my grandkids do too. My days are filled with house hold chores and kids (I baby-sit all 3 grandkids) needs, especially during the summer. I'll make whatever makes my life easier that I KNOW they will eat. I won't apologize for it either--they're healthy and happy kids. Besides canned foods ARE often wholesome and nutritious. I check labels quite closely since I'm diabetic and buy low carb and sugar, high protein. The diabetes has nothing to do with the canned foods we eat and is entirely hereditary on my father's side.


VKJ51my mom used to make bean sandwiches similar. She would use left over baked beans, add onion and bell peppers and eat on bread or toast.

To each his own I geuss but I DO plan to use many of the ideas here. I want to spend time in the pool with the kids too--and don't plan to be stuck inside trying to concoct some non-canned food that they wouldn't eat anyway.
