Healthy isn?t something you are or aren?t. It?s a hundred little things: eating a banana, walking in the park, putting a bandage on a boo-boo, playing tag, reading up on ways to keep you and your family well and safe. It?s a balance between living well and taking care, and you can start right where you are.

A Leaner Kids’ Meal

PaneraKids

After my recent post about calorie-laden kids’ meals at fast-food restaurants, my pals at Panera Bread got in touch to let me know that they had an alternative. If you’re not familiar with the bakery chain, they’re in at least 40 states and offer up yummy bread and a good place for lunch.

They also offer three kids meals items, all of which  are served on whole grain bread, trans fat free, and 400 calories or fewer:

  • Panera Kids  Grilled Cheese Sandwich: 300  calories; 14 grams of protein  
  • Panera Kids Deli Sandwich – Smoked Turkey: 300   calories; 20 grams of protein  
  • Panera Kids Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwich: 400   calories; 13 grams of protein

No time to put whip out the cutting board at home? They’re not a bad alternative.
