If A Rat With A French Accent Can Cook, So Can You



If you think cooking for your family is too much work, or too hard to learn, get inspired by a cute little rat that's been cooking it up on the big screen, and let a new menu planning service help.



Milford, IL (PRWEB) July 31, 2007



A little rat from the newest animated movie "Ratatouille" is motivating many parents to give cooking another try. Menu Planning Central, a new menu planning service, makes it easy for busy parents to figure out what to cook and brings plenty of helpful hints and instructions as well as support. Each member receives 12 different weekly menus per month ranging from family friendly fare to healthy and vegetarian dishes. Each menu comes with detailed recipes and a categorized shopping list, making it easy to prepare each dish.



Thousands of Americans pick up their nightly dinner at a fast food drive through or call for pizza delivery instead of preparing a home-cooked meal for themselves and their loved ones. Cooking at home just seems too hard and time consuming. After all, who has the luxury of sitting down and figuring out what to cook, find the recipe and then run to the store? Christine Steendahl, "The Menu Mom" does - in fact she's been doing this for years. "I started sitting down and planning what I was going to cook out of necessity after my second child was born. I just didn't have the time to run to the store every other day to pick up something to cook for dinner", says Steendahl. "Making out a menu allowed me to shop once a week and makes preparing dinner at night a much calmer and easier event for the whole family".



Soon friends and family members asked her to share her weekly menu. That's when Christine Steendahl realized that there was a real need for a diversified service that would help families cook dinner again. "This is just what my family needed", says Susanne Myers. "Our four-year-old daughter is enjoying the family-friendly meals and I'm even able to sneak in the occasional piece of steamed fish and of course lots of veggies. I'm feeling like a much better mom feeding her a balanced meal instead of heating up some frozen chicken nuggets and calling it dinner."



Quite a few of Menu Planning Central's customers get the whole family involved with dinner. Watching the movie "Ratatouille" together can be a great way to get the kids interested in preparing food. Not only will you teach them an important life skill, kids are also more likely to eat healthier foods if they help prepare them, and perhaps you can even sneak in little lessons in math, remembering colors and the names of different types of foods.
