Marinated Flank Steak

Filled with B vitamins and iron, this is a great lean protein dish. Marinate overnight for best flavor. This is a delicious marinade for chicken and fish, too.

Children Should Avoid Rare Meat at All Costs

Research has shown that rare meat products can carry bacteria, and children should be eating meat products that are cooked through — at the very least, cooked to pink, or medium (teens and older). Medium well is even better.
