If you’re brave enough to host a houseful of kids, the least we can do is help keep them fed. Put these proven kid-pleasers on the table for a party that ends happy, not hangry.
Crunchy Cheddar Pretzel Dip

It’s creamy, it’s cheesy, it’s almost too delicious. Put this out early or you’re likely to eat it all before the kids get their fair share.
Ranched-Up Hummus

Are those kids eating … vegetables??? Yes, when this super tasty dip is sitting temptingly alongside. Prepare to feel like parent of the year.
Broc Mac & Cheese

It’s not from a box. And it has broccoli in it. And … they love it anyway! File this under “things you never thought possible” and enjoy.
Veggie Face Pizza

Here’s an idea — make the kids make their own dinner. Watch as veggies become faces, flowers or frescoes, and then get happily devoured.
Ranch Dipped Chicken Fingers

Double the ranch = double delicious. These crispy chicken fingers get even more kid-friendly with ranch flavor baked right in.
