Move over Pinterest, hello TikTok. If you feel like you’ve browsed every recipe that Pinterest has to offer and you’re still looking for new ideas of things that your kids will eat, consider TikTok recipes.
The TikTok recipes that go viral like the famed TikTok feta pasta recipe or TikTok mac and cheese recipes are actually often amazing time savers for busy families in need of a dinnertime (or snacktime) cooking hack. These recipes make use of the microwave a lot, as well as handy tools like the popular Instant Pot and air fryer. We also love that these TikTok recipes are a complete celebration of food and introduce kids to new flavors that might just expand those picky palates. Bonus: Most of the 20-plus recipes we've selected to highlight below require few ingredients and little cleanup. Find more treats and cooking ideas in our Easy Recipes Guide for families.
