I'm opening my home daycare next week and I've been working on the menus! I enrolled in the CACFP food program, and have been trying to come up with a list of kid friendly meals to serve. I'll start with a list of what I came up with, add pictures as I make the meals, and also add other ideas later on. What are some of your favorite meals to serve?
