On the subject of coming up with healthful, quick meals that the kids will actually eat, you'll want to check out today's installment of our Make Over My Meal series. This month, a single mother who works full-time asked for help with dinners for her daughters.

Food blogger Rachel Rappaport offered some good ideas, including a recipe for peanut butter and noodles with snow peas (pictured) that I'm definitely going to try. Maybe the picture of the adorable little girl about to try something new that ran with the story will persuade my family it's a good idea.

By the way, if you'd like to volunteer to be featured in Make Over My Meal, please send an e-mail to food@baltsun.com with "Makeover" in the subject line. Give us your name and phone number, and tell us a little about what meal you'd like made over.
