Well, my little chef is in action again thanks to Jean. Maggie has been cooking up a storm all by herself (mostly) and loving it. Jean was a sweetheart and sent Maggie her own Chef-a-nota Cookbook filled with recipes for kids and space for Maggie's own recipes or things she might like to try. It is wonderful!
While Maggie has now made the Fancy Sandiwiches many times in the past few days, she has also made the Tater Tot Casserole twice for our family dinner. The best thing about this is that Maggie actually ate the casserole. For her this is quite an accomplishment because she will NEVER eat food that is mixed up and is very 'picky' about veggies in things. She won't even try them. Wow!
Now I have tried this technique of having her help me cook to get her to eat, but it has never worked. This cookbook was just the ticket for her. It is her book, she choose the recipe, she cooked the recipe, and she ate it too! Wonderful!
She has cooked this casserole for us two nights in a row. I can't wait to see if she wants to cook tonight too!
Thank you Jean for inspiring my little chef!
