hat’s for dinner?” It’s often the most dreaded question of the day. Between school, activities, work and life, there are nights the big dinner decision “W doesn’t happen until the last possible minute. Fortunately, the answer is probably right in your pantry — canned food. Canned foods are not only convenient and budget-friendly, they reduce your cooking time and inspire whole- some and delicious meals your family will love. Canned items are also one of the best ways to get food directly from the farm to your fami- ly’s table. Because many fruits and vegetables are canned directly after harvest, the canning process seals in foods’ freshness and natural goodness, retaining their taste, quality and nutri- ents. Canned vegetables and fruits often provide as many vitamins and as much dietary fiber as their fresh and frozen counterparts. So when you’re cooking with canned foods, you can feel confident that you’re serving your family a high-quality, hearty, home-cooked meal. And, most importantly, you know what’s for dinner. It’s in your pantry (a.k.a. your “Cantry.”) For more recipes, visit www.Facebook.com/CansGetYouCooking and www.Pinterest.com/CansGetUCooking.
