Mac-n-Cheese made with Tofu

Moms know that kids’ lunch boxes need to be packed with yummy and interesting foods to avoid the temptation of greasy cafeteria pizza! A great way to make kids the food they love and introduce their young palates to organic and gluten-free foods is to serve them tofu. As versatile as sour cream, mayonnaise, or cream cheese, tofu adds a healthier component to many favorite recipes.

No kids can resist is a bowl of macaroni and cheese! House Foods has created the Tofu Mac’ n Cheese by adding their creamy tofu to this kid staple.

What Yelling Yields: The Truth About how it Impacts Your Teens

 

There is much buzz about a recent study that concluded that yelling at teens yields little benefit. Specifically the study, which was conducted by researchers from the University of Pittsburgh and University of Michigan, found that the teens of parents who reported using verbal aggression to discipline were more prone to symptoms of depression and problem behaviors including lying and fighting. The study highlighted that the verbal aggression parents displayed during altercations with their teens had a strong negative impact on teens. These effects were not moderated by displays of warmth and support by parents at times when parents and teens were not in conflict.
