Kids love easy foods, foods that they can pick up and fit in their hands. And of course most kids love cheesy mac n cheese. Well why not serve them macaroni & cheese in a muffin cup? These delicious little ooey gooey, cheesy cups of pasta are too good not to grab and gobble up. And we like that you can pack them up for lunch or eat them on the go if you must. Although we still prefer to eat them sitting down one savory bite at a time.
Barilla has several new pastas out that are made with veggies. We tried the Orange Elbow macaroni that is made with carrot and squash. We liked the color and don’t tell your kids but for a 3.5 ounce serving they are getting a full serving of vegetables. And while you’ll still need to serve those adorable kiddos more veggies, hey any added veggies are a good thing. Two other great options for your pasta are: High Protein Pastas and the Gluten Free pastas if your family cannot have gluten.

Feel free to use your favorite cheeses or a different pasta shape or flavor.
What can I say, we love bite-sized foods and any foods in muffin tins that we can shape and bake them in. I guess you can say we are kinda addicted to small bites. What do you like to bake in muffin tins?
