Christmas has come to a close, and it’s high time for a reprieve from the heat and welcome the crisp cool and cold days of December. This time it’s packed with a lot of wonderful recipes and ideas, and while it is still November, people must decide what kind of kiddie menus will be available for Christmas season that is convenient to cook, unique taste at affordable prices.
We must also encourage our little ones to be excited about helping in the kitchen. Kids love to get it on the cooking action, and when they do, they are more likely to eat the results. This makes the cooking lively and happy, it could be the bonding moments of family. And since Christmas is also a vacation days for school aged children, it could be the best that they will engaged in cooking food for holidays.
Spaghetti and meatballs are the all time favorite of kids. Rolling meatballs is a perfect task for kids, its fun and the balls don’t have to be shaped precisely. In the process, teach them the importance of washing their hands with soap and water before and after handling the meat.
Addition to this, another family dinner makeover could be simple burger patties or cheeseburger with bacon recipe. The kids could make the patties with adults’ supervision. For this activities can also enhance their reliability, confidence and love for cooking.
As for desserts, we always welcome the idea of ‘tiramisu’ or the famous graham cake. Kids would love to make the cake for its easy way of preparation and doing the layer using the graham crackers. The secret of this recipe is in the filling.
This is true for so many recipes most certainly for this where a filling of rich creamy milk and all purpose cream soaks into the thin layers of graham crackers. This was the dessert of choice in days where people gathered for occasion. Also, because cakes were so expensive, families each prepared a layer of this graham cake with different style and toppings.
Gathering friends and family around the table to indulge in the foods where kids are the main cook will give delight to the spirit of Christmas and eating healthier food.
