Kid's In The Kitchen

Riley has been helping me in the kitchen since she could hold a spoon. She started cracking eggs at 3 and pounding chicken breasts by the time she was 6. Now and again, the roles will change. Riley will cook the meal and I will oversee for safety and guidance. Here are a couple of her meals.

Hamburger Macaroni Casserole

This recipe is so simple. We used frozen fully cooked hamburger patties, boxed macaroni and cheese and grated cheddar cheese.

Simply cook the macaroni and cheese as stated on the box. While that is cooking, thaw and chop the hamburger patties. Once the macaroni is done, add the hamburger and half a package of grated cheese. Pour into a casserole dish and top with remaining grated cheese. Bake at 350° until golden brown.
Chocolate Chip Banana Pancakes

For children, the shake and pour pancake mix is perfect. There is very little clean up and no mess mixing. Prepare as directed and simply add sliced bananas and a sprinkle of chocolate chips to the pancakes after you pour them on the skillet before the flip.
