I got the Yum crate from Kiwi.co for Sofie and Noah. It was a lot of work! But I sure enjoyed being with these two kiddos. They learned a lot about cooking and we had fun disguising the food.
The first thing we made was meatloaf and we made it look like a cake!
They learned how to peel potatoes and chop some onion and mix.
We used beet juice to make the mashed potatoes pink!
They were so proud of it.
Dad came home just in time to be tricked into eating cake for dinner.
The second thing we made was egg muffins for breakfast. They cracked lots of eggs.
Whisked them...
Chopped some meat up.
And then the muffins were ready for the oven.
We put food dye in two of them...purple and orange.
The third thing we made together were sugar cookie french fries with strawberry ketchup.
They folded fry holders and made labels for them. Mystery Food... :)
The fries were pretty good and everyone actually liked them.
The yum crate also came with taste testing supplies. The kids really enjoyed this. They wore a blindfold and nose plugs then tasted skittles and said what they thought the flavor was. We recorded each persons results.
We did all of this cooking during fall break. I'm glad we did it. We really enjoyed our time together.
