I have been asked to share the recipes from my recent post. I must say that 70% of the recipes that Lee tried were not worthy of passing on. This is the point though! I wanted Lee to look for recipes that interested her. Most of our recipes were found in the "Companys Coming" Cook Books and a wonderful magazine we receive called "Kraft: What's Cooking". Lee mostly chose recipes that had pictures to go with them. This was a fabulous way to try new Dishes! Just a few days ago, Lee said to me, "Mom, thanks for teaching me how to cook and bake. I've learned to look at recipes and if some of the ingredients are not what I really like, then I know that the dish won't be that tasty. I know that I'll be able to cook and bake when I move out on my own!" Lee learned by trial and error on her own, not by me telling her that Blue Cheese is a "strong" type of cheese and you probably won't like it...we had to try it in a salad first! Some dishes went in the garbage, and some ingredients went into the garbage, but some dishes became favorites!

Let your children explore what interests them because then the dish really becomes theirs!

Have Fun and bless your children with the gift of cooking/baking!
