What's better than ravioli? Kid ravioli.
For the last few years, my kids have been obsessed with this one brand of ravioli in our local supermarket. (They call it "Kid Ravioli.") Because as it turns out, if you're four years old, ravioli tastes better when it's cut like a heart or a spaceship or a teddy bear. Who knew? Kid Ravioli actually has a proper name-- Jolie Ravioli. And I'm so pleased to see this little Brooklyn company is now available online and getting wider distribution. The pasta is made with 100% natural ingredients, and it's a good way to sneak in veggies if you go for the cheese + broccoli flavor.

I love that the company is run by a devoted dad--in fact, that's Paul's daughter Joli on the package. But what I love more is that my girls have now outgrown the phase where they fight over who got more stars and who got more dinosaurs. Also, that they're starting to ask about the one with the green packaging; the one with the broccoli inside.  -Liz

Look for Jolie Ravioli at a store near you like Whole Foods, Food Lion and Shop Rite, or order online. At just $4.25 a pack, buy a bunch and store it in the freezer. Trust me, your kids will go through it.
