Parents will love the fact that their kids are actually eating broccoli, which is a great source of vitamins K and C. It protects kids’ immune systems and helps build strong, healthy bones.

Your kids will be more likely to eat green, leafy veggies in the future if they start to enjoy them now. And they can be delicious if prepared well!  It will help keep their teeth and bones strong throughout adulthood.

The kids will love spreading the sauce and sprinkling the cheese… and cooking together will make your kids more eager to snack on their creation.

2. Ranch Chicken Tacos

Ranch chicken tacos are super-easy to prepare with a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken, some wax paper, and a warmed skillet pan.  And gluten free tortillas are as easy as choosing corn! Chicken is an excellent lean source of protein for kids, keeping their energy up without packing on the carbs. It is also a great source of selenium, phosphorous, and vitamin B6.

The recipe also includes superfoods like olives, tomatoes, and avocados. It is a super way to introduce your littles to avocado, which has lots of good fats and vitamins like C, E, and K.

Olives are packed with antioxidants and excellent for heart health. And tomatoes are packed with vitamin C, potassium, and folate. Kids will learn to love their taste with a little savory ranch to sweeten the deal.

3. Berry Slush

Nothing gets kids more excited about summer than an icy treat. Get them in the kitchen to help create a Gluten Free Dairy Free Banana Berry Fruity Slush.

Berries are loaded with fiber, antioxidants, and nutrients like Vitamin C. Bananas are a great way to replace the creaminess of dairy and boost kids’ moods. They are also an excellent source of potassium.

Get kids in the kitchen to mix the ingredients before you blend for some extra bonding time.  They will love the fun color of this berry slush.  And kids love straws… so don’t forget to grab colorful, reusable straws to boot!

4. Gluten-Free Chocolate Chip Cookies

When sunshine is scarce and long evenings are spent indoors, these fun chicken dinner ideas are a great way to bring the family together and spice up your day. 

It won’t be long before the flowers start to bloom and the afternoon light stretches late into the evening, but for now, the brief moments of clear skies are here just to tease us. Jackets are still needed, and the grass is still perpetually damp. 

Like the last two weeks of classes before a senior’s graduation, the last few weeks of winter seem to drag in the PNW. On days when it seems it will never end, dinner can be more than a meal–it can be a fun family activity to break up the day and actually enjoy your precious time together. Since you’ll likely be dining indoors for a little while longer, why not try one of these delicious chicken dinner ideas?

Homemade Individual Chicken Pesto Pizzas

Homemade personal pizzas are sure to please a wide range of diverse taste buds, because they’re as individual as the people making them! This foolproof, fun to make meal will help your kids gain confidence in their cooking skills or give you and your dinner guests something to do with your hands while you all catch up on life together. 

Oil a baking sheet (you may have to use more than one sheet, depending on how many pizzas you make).

Start with a simple pizza crust. You can use a packaged pizza crust, or–if you’re feeling fancy–make your own with this simple recipe from Taste and Tell. Tacoma Boys and H&L Produce also carries cauliflower pizza dough as a healthier alternative to a traditional crust. 

Whatever dough you use, divide it into four parts. This is where the whole family can get involved. Flour a large surface and your hands and stretch and roll each piece into a six-inch circle. Place on oiled baking sheets. 

Spread a generous amount of pesto onto each circle, leaving at least half an inch around the edge bare.

Sprinkle your choice of cheese over the sauce, covering it completely. Add pizzazz to your pizzas with Tacoma Boys and H&L Produce’s wide variety of specialty cheeses. Fresh mozzarella and ricotta make an especially scrumptious combination. 

Add toppings. The sky’s the limit with topping possibilities, but for a pesto pizza, consider pan grilling chicken from Tacoma Boys and H&L Produce’s fresh meat selections. Some other meat options are sausage and pepperoni. Don’t forget roasted tomatoes, olives, fresh basil, and red bell pepper. 

Finally, bake pizza dough according to directions, checking on them early and often since they’re smaller. 

Oven Baked Chicken Kabobs

Oven baked kabobs are a great way to bring the flavor of summer grill-outs to your table, no matter the weather outside. Kids love being able to build their own kabobs, and there’s just something special about dinner on a stick!

The trick to making kabobs in the oven is to soak wooden kabobs for 12 hours so they don’t burn in the oven. This is a great time to get your chicken marinating as well!

Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. 

Chop raw chicken into 1-inch pieces. Assume each person will eat about 4oz of chicken, so one small breast or half a large breast each. Place in a ziploc bag with teriyaki marinade and refrigerate. You can use store bought marinade or make your own with this recipe from Allrecipes. Marinate for at least 20 minutes, up to 24 hours prior to baking. 

When the chicken is almost done marinating, preheat the oven to 450℉.

Chop bell peppers (the more colors, the better), fresh pineapple chunks, and purple onions into 1-inch chunks. Try to chop equal amounts of each ingredient.

Once the chicken has finished marinating, it’s time for assembly! This is the fun part. Place each ingredient in a separate bowl and let each person build their own kabobs, alternating ingredients until the kabob is almost full. Leave one inch on each end for easier handling. 

Place kabobs on baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes or until chicken reaches 165℉ internally.

With summer on the way, this chicken dinner is a great way to prep those taste buds for all the meals you’ll soon be enjoying in the backyard!

Crockpot Chicken Tacos for the Whole Family

Prepare for a new family staple! This chicken dinner could not be simpler and is packed with flavor for the whole family to enjoy. Everyone can assemble their own chicken tacos to their taste, so all you have to do is prepare the ingredients!

Start with four or five chicken breasts in the bottom of your Crockpot. You can pick up fresh chicken breasts at Tacoma Boys and H&L Produce, or keep your freezer stocked with our bulk frozen chicken breasts!

Sprinkle a packet of taco seasoning evenly over the chicken breasts. You can use a premade packet, or make your own from Tacoma Boys and H&L’s bulk spices using this recipe from Gimme Some Oven. If you choose to make your own, use 2-3 tablespoons of seasoning, depending on your preference. 

Pour one jar of Tacoma Boys Salsa over the top. 

Cook on high 3-4 hours or low 7-8.

Shred chicken directly in the pot. Pro tip: use your handheld mixer to shred the chicken easily and quickly. 

Enjoy on flour or corn tortillas. These tacos are great topped with cheese, sour cream, fresh cilantro, jalapenos, onions, and tomatoes, all of which you can find in our fresh produce section. This recipe makes plenty, so feel free to invite a crowd!

Personal Chicken Packets

These quick, easy-to-make chicken packets are comfort food without the extra work. Try this chicken dinner idea on warm on a cold evening, or–if by chance we get some sun–take them on the go after they’ve cooled! 

Preheat oven to 350℉.

Mix 2 pounds of cooked, cubed chicken with 1 package of cream cheese and a tablespoon of milk. Salt and pepper to taste.

Oil a tin foil lined baking sheet and unroll 2 8oz packages refrigerated crescent rolls onto it. 

Instead of tearing the rolls along the perforation, pinch the perforated line together, so you have four rectangles per tube. 

Spoon ¼ cup of the chicken mixture onto the center of each rectangle. Fold up the edges and pinch together, forming a packet. 

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. 

What’s not to love about chicken, cream cheese, and crescent rolls? Kids love being able to form their own packets, and they’re easily picked up and eaten by hand. These are great for dipping in whatever sauces or dressing you have on hand!

The pace of life will pick up soon with the frenzied activities of summer, so take this chance to slow down and enjoy creating–and eating–a meal together. Here at Tacoma Boys and H&L produce, we have everything you need to make dinner an event, so stop by one of our store locations today!

Are You Ready to Go Shopping for Groceries?

Now that you know how to go shopping for groceries and specialty food items at Tacoma Boys, you can get ready to make one of the most delicious meals you and your loved ones have ever tasted.

If you have any questions about our world-class products, feel free to contact us. We’re always happy to help.

The USDA says that if 95% of a food product is made up of organic ingredients, it can get labeled organic.

Organic food is typically richer in nutrients, and free from pesticides and potential bacteria found in non-organic food.

If you are beginning to seek out organic food in the South Sound, you’re likely making changes to improve the health and well-being of your whole family.  We can help with that!

But it is hard to know when and why to spend extra on the organic variety and where can you find the real stuff that will really improve your diet? (Shameless plug: Tacoma Boys and H&L Produce)

Here are our favorite organic grocery shopping tips.

1. Know What “Organic” Means

Food must meet certain standards in order to get labeled “organic” by the USDA.

Items can be labeled 100% organic, organic (95-99% organic,) made from organic ingredients (74-94% organic,) or specific organic ingredients may be listed.

Organic products have been produced without antibiotics, growth hormones, petroleum-based fertilizers, or pesticides. They must meet certain standards approved by the USDA, including lengthy application, record-keeping, and inspections.

The word “natural” is not synonymous with organic. Natural labels are not regulated by the USDA and may be somewhat misleading.  If you’re at one of our 3 stores, we make it easy.  Just ask one of our friendly employees who are always happy to help!

2. Intimate Grocery Shopping Experience

Healthy eaters have learned that shopping the perimeter of the grocery store can provide them with a more nutritious diet, as most stores put their fresh produce along the perimeter.  But at Tacoma Boys, our local stores are more intimate, and we have great fresh food throughout our entire store!

Focus on providing yourself with a colorful variety of fresh fruits and veggies. The rainbow of colors reflects a variety of vitamins, minerals, and photo nutrients.

Your body also needs two servings of protein a day. It can help you repair tissue and build muscles and bones.

Lean proteins like fish, chicken, and turkey can decrease your appetite and increase muscle strength. Salmon and other fatty fish are also a great source of Omega 3’s, which can lower your blood pressure and help reduce your risk for a heart attack or stroke.

An organic seal on meats means they have only been fed organic feed, and they have not eaten any bi-products of other animals. All organic meats have been subject to regular inspections by USDA-certified inspectors and we carry a wide variety!

3. Don’t Forget Your Fresh and Local Dairy

Organic dairy products typically contain more vitamins and no antibiotics. They have higher levels of Omega 3’s, iron, and Vitamin E, all of which have impressive health benefits.  And we carry lots of local organic dairy products.  As fresh as it gets!

Many dairy products contain potassium, calcium, and Vitamin D that are essential for the health and maintenance of your body. If you don’t drink milk, consider picking up some drinkable yogurt, smoothies, almond milk or pre-portioned cheeses to strengthen your bones and immune system.

4. Check Out The Weekly Specials

Shopping organic can take a little more time than ordinary grocery shopping. So be sure to check out your weekly specials before heading to the store, and plan out your meals accordingly. Sign up for our weekly specials here and stay up to date on all of our featured items of the week to save you time in store!  And we’re always here to help, so feel free to ask any of our friendly employees if you need help finding something specific.

5. Whole Grains For The Win!

Organic whole grains are one of the great reasons to shop organic.  They just taste so good! They are loaded with nutrients that include fiber, protein, and antioxidants. Whole grains can lower your risk of heart disease, diabetes, and some forms of cancer. Whole grains have everything we need to fuel our day for work, kids and families!

Whole oats, brown rice, and rye are all great investments in your and your family’s health.

Grocery Shopping Tips

There are twelve basic varieties of meat, and hundreds of various qualities and cuts.  From flank steak to deli-sliced ham, there are a ton of options for the most adventurous party platter ideas.  And there are benefits to each!

For example, sliced deli meat is more than just a tasty snack.  It can reduce your appetite, increase your metabolism, and build stronger bones and muscles.

Tasty, flavorful cheese is a great source of calcium, fat, and protein.

A savory meat and cheese platter is more than just a fantastic party appetizer. It is a great way to feed friends’ appetites for healthy, fun snacks.

Here are some of our favorite party platter ideas.

1. Meat And Cheese Platter

You can’t go wrong with a classic meat and cheese platter. Think rolled cuts of thinly sliced imported prosciutto, or various cuts of hard salami.  We have a ton of these varieties at all 3 of our locations!

Aim for a variety of hard and soft cheeses to create a collage of tastes, textures, and colors.

Consider soft brie or camembert as a centerpiece. Other awesome soft cheeses include burrata or fresh mozzarella. Cheddar, parmigiana, or pepper jack look interesting and are delicious hard options.

And lastly, adding a little fruit like grapes, apple slices, dried apricots or strawberries can punch up your platter with color, flavor and sophistication.

2. Melon and Prosciutto Platter

Another classic at parties is melon!  Melon adds brightness and juiciness to your plate. You can top with some fresh herbs or tiny banquettes for some variety. Prosciutto is a fantastic pairing for the sweetness of melon and the saltiness of the meat.  Or for vegetarians (or not!) pair with fresh berries for a balance of sweet and tartness.  For even more textures and sweetness, try adding some watermelon, honeydew, or cantaloupe.

Burrata and mozzarella are great cheeses that bring out the light party flavor.  And don’t forget the toothpicks to make grabbing your favorite pairing even easier!

3. Greek Appetizer Plate

An example of a Greek appetizer plate uses nuts, soft-boiled eggs, and feta cheese to add some savory variety. And don’t forget the grape leaves and olive oil for real Mediterranean flare!

We also like freshly made hummus and our fresh olive varieties, which you can find near the cheese at all 3 of our locations.

4. Vegan or Gluten Free Platter

No animal-based foods? No problem! A Vegan platter can serve your friends with nearly any dietary needs in style.

Try Vegan breadsticks combined with dips like olive tapenade or artichoke hummus. Vegan and cauliflower cracker varieties are available at all 3 of our stores, including gluten free and vegan options.  Veggies like cauliflower, carrots and broccoli are always great options, especially when they are fresh from Tacoma Boys and H&L Produce!

5. Healthy Platter

Your friends may be meat-eaters, but they may still be health-conscious and be watching their calories. Try using lean turkey, whole wheat crackers, and almonds to keep your guests’ guts and hearts happy.  And you can never go wrong with fresh greens like snap peas or broccoli.

And don’t forget healthy berries and grapes to add beautiful color, as well as a few vitamins!

6. Kid-Friendly Meat and Cheese Platter

Got teeny party people in the house? No problem!

Make a kid-friendly platter by cutting up milder cheeses like cheddar and Swiss. Your meats can be more kid-friendly and rolled up for easy munching. Think deli ham, turkey, and chicken skewers.  Kids also love to pair items like cornichhons rolled into little logs with cream cheese and turkey.  (Adults will want some as well)

Veggies like baby carrots and grape tomatoes are colorful kid favorites. Don’t forget some pretzels or pita chips for a little salty flavor and the ranch dressing for dipping!

7. A Dessert Platter

For a twist or follow up to a great meat and cheese party platter ideas, a great platter can also be the perfect finger food when it’s dessert time. Sliced fruit and dark chocolate work great with chocolate or cream cheese-based dips. You may even want to add some banana or zucchini bread for your health-conscious guests, and some warm dipping chocolate is always fun with fresh fruit like strawberries!

The Best Party Platter Ideas

The best party platter ideas are themed, colorful and flavorful. Your guests will be raving about them and loving your soiree in no time!

According to statistics, between 30 and 50 million Americans are dairy intolerant.

If you are someone who cannot tolerate dairy, you might feel like you are missing out on some of the best dishes! However, nowadays creamy mains, melt-in-your-mouth sauces, and frozen desserts do not have to be off-limits.

You just need to have the right recipes up your sleeve!

If you want to whip up some incredibly delicious dairy-free recipes that are simple and easy to make—read on. Because we are about to share with you 4 lactose-free recipes that you won’t believe don’t have dairy.

1. No-Bake Cheesecake

Cheesecake. One of the dishes missed most by those who have dairy intolerances.

Fortunately, there are many dairy-free cheesecake recipes that you can try. One of them is this no-bake cheesecake from Minimalist Baker.

To make the crust, place 1 cup pitted dates in a food processor and blend until you can make a ball with the mix. Remove and place 1 cup raw walnuts into the food processor. Blend into a meal.

Then add the dates back and process until a dough forms.

Grease a muffin pan and press 1 tbsp of crust into each depression.

Then combine 1 1/2 cups raw cashews (flash soaked in hot water), juice of one large lemon, 1/3 cup melted coconut oil, 2/3 cup full-fat coconut milk, and 1/2 cup agave nectar in a blender. Blend until smooth.  And our Tacoma Boys raw nuts come in bulk, so you can toss them into other recipes as well!

Next, simply scoop the filling into your muffin pan. At this stage, you can add any toppings/flavoring of your choice, such as fresh blueberries, or caramel sauce.

Cover with plastic wrap and freeze for 4-6 hours.

2. Dairy-Free Cheese Sauce

Having a good dairy-free cheese sauce recipe on hand is invaluable for anybody who is lactose intolerant. Try this simple rendition from Ela Vegan.

To start, combine 3/4 cup coconut milk, 3 tbsp nutritional yeast, 2 tbsp tapioca flour, and 1/2 tsp salt in a saucepan. You can also choose to include onion powder, garlic powder, and/or a pinch of smoked paprika for extra flavor.

Bring up to boil and simmer for 1 minute while stirring. Once the sauce is stretchy, voilà!

You can use this cheese sauce as a dip, in dairy-free lasagnas, or even on top of pizzas in place of melted cheese.

3. Creamy Dairy-Free Alfredo Sauce

This basic recipe from Simply Whisked can be used on its own with fettuccine pasta, or as a base into which you can add chicken or veggies.

To begin, heat 2 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp garlic in a skillet and sauté. Add 2 tbsp flour, and stir. Then whisk in 1/2 cup chicken broth.

Lastly, whisk in 3/4 cup cashew cream, 3/4 cup full-fat coconut milk 1/2–1 tsp salt, 1 tsp nutritional yeast, and black pepper to taste. Simmer until thick.
