Welcome Riverside Presbyterian Day School!


Dream Dinners had a great time with the 6th graders at Riverside Presbyterian Day School. In association with Trac 3D Fitness and Smoothie King, we put on a presentation teaching the kids about nutrition and fitness. These kids are really sharp! Polite and well-mannered, it turns out their parents and their teachers, on the whole, are really doing a great job training their children to eat wholesome and healthy meals. After examining the food pyramid and portion sizes along with healthy ways to boost the nutrition in any meal they eat, the kids were treated to delicious, low-fat samples of Manicotti from Dream Dinners and smoothies from Smoothie King. Needless to say, when seconds were requested, we felt wonderful!

Why not get your kids involved in learning about great nutrition early in their lives? Start them young and let them reap the benefits of healthy eating patterns. Children ten and older are welcome to assist you in your dinner preparations at Dream Dinners. If you know school children, seven or older, who can use a little training in nutrition or would like to have them learn about meal preparation contact us!

How It Works

Dream Dinners offers 17 items each month plus side dishes. Step 1. Log on to dreamdinners.com Step 2. Locate "Register" link at lower right on page. Click on link and complete registration form. Step 3. Choose a date and time that you'd like to come in and prepare your dinners by selecting the "Menus and Sessions" link. Step 4. Arrive at our location with a cooler or basket to take your meals home in. Step 5. Fix up 12-17 dinners in about two hours and have fun doing it! Step 6. Take your personally assembled meals home to freeze, thaw and cook at a later time in the month. What that means is this: You no longer have the excuse of stopping in at McJunkFood, or Le Expensive to have a delicious, healthy meal at home, ready to go! You and your family reap huge benefits. Step 7. Hint: Don't forget to frizz your hair a little and dust on some flour, so your family will know how hard you worked to prepare dinner!

Cooking and Assembly Tips

Dream Dinners is committed to giving you healthy alternatives to restaurant and fast food. You'll notice when assembling meals how little salt is added to our recipes. Since we add an abundance of other herbs and spices, you will taste how delicious the meals are without a lot of added salt. The side dish vegetables and rices/pastas are provided with very simple instructions and do not include the addition of salt or butter or oil.


If you have questions about the nutritional information on any dinner or if you misplace the cooking instructions, you can always go to our website (see link above in the Useful Links section). Just go to the menus page and click the link for the information you need or click any of the links above for a printable menu, calendar or nutrition fact sheet. We make it easy!
