The first eight pages discuss nutrition, portion sizes, allergies, and safety. My toddler may be more interested in the “ABC’s of Healthy Food” letter correspondences in the future but for now he delights in the vibrantly colored pages as he identifies the foods. Together time in the kitchen is one of my favorite memories from my childhood.
This book has paid for itself already with the one recipe we have tried. We substituted dried cranberries for dried cherries, and oh my gosh it tasted delicious. It is seriously better than my typical blueberry muffins; it Including oats, yogurt to replace oil, and whole wheat flower. Nutrition habits are built at a very early age and at my age I still love learning.
The recipes are grouped into various meal times and snacks. Each recipe is marked to show activities a child could help with. My son learned to measure flour more accurately, by using a butter knife to level it off. He takes great pride that he helped made the muffins.
We spend a half hour reading books each day. I plan to spend an hour a week sharing home cooked meals with his help. We very rarely eat out, due to cost.
This book will save is from evenings of mac and cheese and salmon burgers due to its variety. I highly recommend this book.

Ernie’s Light and Easy Veggie Lasagna Rolls from Sesame Street Let's Cook
Prep Time: 25 minutes | Cooking Time: 25 minutes | Makes 4 servings (8 rolls)
Lasagna is even more lovable and easy to eat rolled up. Serve with lean, grilled Italian-style turkey sausages and Elmo’s Tiny Tomato Salad on the side.

3 Meanwhile, in a large bowl, with the wooden spoon, combine the kale or spinach, cottage cheese, ½ cup of the mozzarella cheese, ¼ cup of the Parmesan cheese, the basil, garlic, salt, and pepper.
4 Use a small spoon to spread about ¼ cup of the cheese mixture evenly over the length of each noodle. Roll each noodle up.

Precious cookbook with easy to follow recipes (catering to young children), that by virtue of their simplicity are pretty widely flexible for the adult to add flavor, texture, cooking time, etc.
Easy, flexible, collaborative for toddlers and up!

My 2.5 yo has chosen 2 recipes so far, the zucchini and tomato fettuccine, and the multigrain cherry muffins (pictured above). We added to the first recipe (double garlic and lemon, cook tomatoes down, add basil, chicken, broth, pepper, cook in more Parmesan), and veered wildly from the second (Greek yogurt for plain, extra oil, cake flour for whole wheat flour, craisins not cherries, add vanilla, etc), and both came out surprisingly well.
The characters add to the excitement, and the habit of starting with fresh groceries and ending with a pretty mess-free meal, are the main pros to be gleaned here.
