Friday Fun cooking has begun! I’m cooking lead for my daughter’s and son’s K/1 classes. With the late start to the school year, we’ve only had one cooking session in my son’s class so far, but it was a blast! I LOVE cooking with the kinders and 1st graders. Yes – it can be total chaos at times. But watching them roll up their sleeves, digging in to whatever peeling, chopping, cracking, mashing has to be done, and trying (and enjoying!) new flavors – is such an amazing experience.
What was our first cooking project? Kids’ Paleo Pancakes! A super fun and easy take on the 2 egg/1 banana paleo pancakes that many of you may already know. Bodi wants to make “banana pancakes” all the time now!
