Another idea for getting ideas is to get a few really nice cookbooks which focus on healthy eating, put them on the coffee table, and then maybe tell your kids something like "Hey, I got these really cool cookbooks. They're on the coffee table. Feel free to look through them and tell me what you think looks good and I'll try to cook it one day."

I don't have kids so don't know if something like that would work but I do know that when I was living with my ex-gf about 10 or more years ago, we had a cookbook from The Spa at Doral and a signed copy of one of the first Jamie Oliver books on our coffee table and when people came over, they would natually flip through one of the books and say 'Ooh, this one looks good'. It gave us some pretty good ideas. Very helpful because it can get stressful to pick out new stuff on your own all the time.
