Trying to get my whole family to be on the same page with meals is insane. My kids are picky! My husband is picky! And it seems we are all going in so many directions all the time. AND…another issue I have at my household is that there aren’t many meals that everyone in my family will ALL eat.
But that is about to change, especially after I discovered the Balance Your Plate recommendation.
Research shows that Americans are only meeting MyPlate recommendations for vegetables, fruit, proteins, dairy and grains seven days out of 365. We know that everyone wants to eat better, but need inspiration and simple solutions to choose from so they can make it a reality more often.
Here’s the deal…Balance Your Plate is an educational program designed to help you put together delicious and nutritious meals that incorporate both frozen and fresh foods. Our great tasting food and side dish recipes show you don’t need to compromise flavor for nutrition when turning to convenient options that fit your busy lifestyle. Balance Your Plate is focused on simple solutions – offering a range of recipes and tips that allow you to choose the “perfect pairing” at meal time.
We tried out Stouffer’s Lasagna and it was really good! The lasagna comes in a family size, and is made the way you would imagine- just pop it into the oven, pair it with simple sides to balance your plate, and serve! The simpler recipe now contains fewer ingredients, but continues to offer the same great taste consumers know and love. No preservatives, which is a good thing!
Have you ever tried Stouffer’s? How do you make sure your family gets a balanced plate?

Stouffer’s is the best! Anytime I am having a get-together and am short on time I gravitate towards their lasagna. It is so good and tastes homemade!
I love stouffers. I grew up eating their lasagna and stuffed peppers. Whenever I need a family size meal that I can just throw in the oven I always choose one of theirs!
It’s still early here but even at this time of day, that lasagna looks delicious! I love meals like these when you don’t want to spend money on going out but you don’t feel like cooking either.
I haven’t heard of the Balance your Plate initiative, but it sounds fantastic. Anything to make it easier for every one to eat better is awesome! This lasagna sounds delicious. Glad your whole family likes it!
So this is literally what we are having for dinner tonight, we love Stouffer’s lasagna! I always pair it with a veggie or salad and some garlic bread. It’s a great meal option that everyone loves!
I’ve been looking for a quick lasagna to pick up so I’m glad you wrote about this one! I’ll definitely grab it to try it out. I have not heard of the Balance your Plate, so that’s an interesting idea and I hope it goes well!
My favorite dinner with Stouffers is their lasagne, a big green salad, and a pile of big purple grapes. Yum.
I love the Balance Your plate initiative. I also pair my Stouffer’s Lasagna with a big green salad full of chopped vegetables. A perfect easy meal for busy weeknights.
Wow – only 7 days? Yikes. But – LOVE Stouffers (always have for like a million years!) and think its great how they are helping with the Balance Your Plate!
I’m really not a fan of frozen foods except for a couple of brands and Stouffer’s is one of them! They’re not that bad, am I right?
We just had a Stouffer’s Lasagna for dinner last week! My kids are obsessed with them! I love how simple it makes dinner!
Love Stouffers! What a fun winter-time meal. Thanks for sharing ideas on how to balance your plate… All things in moderation is our mantra! XO
Stouffers is a must have for us! It’s quick and easy on our busy nights. My boys love the mac & cheese!
I made Stouffer’s lasagna for my son today. It tasted great and it was so easy to make for his lunch.
I am not a big fan of lasagna. I find it very greasy and plus the calories make me very guilty of having it. 😀 Though this looks very nice.
I bought a box to put in our freezer for the upcoming holidays. Sometimes we all get enough turkey and need a break!
I eat Stouffers several times a week. I am not much of a cook, so I usually eat a frozen dinner for lunch at work rather than eat out. I am a huge fan of Stouffers Lean Cuisine. I have tried every single variety they have!
I try very hard to create a balanced plate. We eat a more plant, whole-food based diet, but that doesn’t mean I’m not conscious of ensuring we are getting the protein, fat and carbs we need.
We love Stouffer’s in my house! I am actually making one of their lasagna’s this week while family is in for the holiday.
I love Stouffers! We have it in our house all the time. The lasagna is delicious. It is great for a quick and easy meal. Especially since I am a TERRIBLE cook! Thanks for sharing. 🙂
My mom used to make these all the time! Its a great time saver and helps out with dinner time and filling!
I don’t usually buy packaged food but we bought a lasagna on a whim one night and loved it. Now one is usually in the freezer for when we have one of “those” nights.
I have always loved Stouffer’s Lasagna! It’s can be a life saver on a busy night!
Yum, I can’t wait to eat this same lasagna later this week. It’s my favorite.
I have tried out Stoffer’s and I’m a big fan of their meals. I look forward to trying this.
I’d like a side of garlic bread myself! 😉 We always have Stouffers on hand for busy nights.
Omg I grew up eating Stouffers Lasagna!!! Now when I eat lasagna that doesn’t look like Stouffers I think it’s all sorts of weird because that’s what I’m use to lol…
If I am not going to make homemade lasagna then it’s going to be Stouffer’s. This is a great brand.
This is a great idea. Wish this was a thing when I was a kid as I feel it was always hard balancing the whole families meals. Everyone wants to eat different and this is a great solution!
