TODAY on MHTV: Fast and fun meals are a great way to get kids to eat dinner, and my nieces Callie and Bella are here today to help me out in the kitchen. For a healthy alternative to fried food, my baked herb-buttermilk chicken tenders are the answer and if you’re in a rush, pasta wheels with cheese spooned into cups are awesome on-the-go. Plus, Callie, Bella and I make devil’s food cupcakes topped with gooey, toasted marshmallows. More from the show.

    I don’t even have little kids, and I can’t wait to make the meal. I think my “big kids” (17 and 15) and hubby will LOVE it (even the cupcakes)!
