Creamy Caesar Patty Melts

Recipes

Did you know that adults should eat at least 48 grams of whole grains a day? And children (ages 4-13 years old) should eat nearly as much whole grain as an adult, with a recommended 40-48 grams a day? However, studies show that the majority of us don’t eat the recommended amount. I must admit that my family is one of those families not consuming the recommended amount of whole grains.Creamy Cesar Patty Melts... emphasis on the creamy and DELICIOUS! This quick and easy 5 ingredient recipe is perfect for lunch when you want something more grown up than a PB&J sandwich or when you are tired of leftovers.

So, this week I created a new recipe Creamy Caesar Patty Melts… emphasis on the creamy and DELICIOUS! This quick and easy 5 ingredient recipe is perfect for lunch when you want something more grown up than a PB&J sandwich or when you are tired of leftovers.Creamy Cesar Patty Melts

 To incorporate more whole grains into our day I used Nature’s Harvest® Honey Wheat Made with Whole Grain Bread, which contains at least 8 grams of whole grains per serving but doesn’t contain high fructose corn syrup or artificial flavors and colors.Creamy Cesar Patty Melts

Nature’s Harvest® bread is excited to launch the “Whole Grain Challenge” to encourage moms and families to incorporate 48 grams of whole grains into their diets every day. Find educational content on the Nature’s Harvest® website and Facebook page to help your family stay on track with the challenge. Go take the whole grain pledge on the Nature’s Harvest® Facebook page and automatically be entered into a weekly sweepstakes now until August 10th!Creamy Cesar Patty Melts

    I get whole grains through bread and cereal. My kids have food allergies so they don’t consume a lot of traditional grains like wheat. or anything with gluten.

    I use Alton Brown’s recipe for baked brown rice, which makes enough for 2 or 3 meals. It comes out perfect pretty much every time, and it’s a tasty way to get my family to eat whole grains. We like Nature’s Harvest bread, but can’t always find it at the store.
