Little Chefs

A few weeks ago we were at the public library and they had a display of children's cookbooks. Noah and Allison got super excited about learning to cook this summer. (Most nights the kids are watching TV or playing video games while I make dinner.) Each week we plan for them to cook one dinner and one dessert each. Autumn is too little to do much but she enjoys watching and occasionally stirring or pouring something.  Here's what we have done so far:

Key lime pie

Fish sticks

Fun with breading fish sticks

Meringue with strawberries and cream, yummy!

Minestrone
