Kids food

 

Little people don’t need takeaway food to keep them happy. Sometimes if you get them involved in making their favourites it’s not only cost effective, but also instills a few basic cooking skills and hopefully an interest in food. Dean our grandson has been staying with us for a few days. 7 years old is not too young to be cooking under supervision. Well we don’t think so any way!….

Dean likes Pasta Bolognese – So here’s him helping to make it!



The finished results!

 



He’s also rather keen on Chicken Nuggets. But our home made version is considerably healthier….

 



We also had to do the obligatory Pumpkin….

We did give him breakfast and lunch so he didn’t need to stick to our “One hearty meal a day” gig, but even so we didn’t break our £4 a budget too dramatically…...

Stuffed Portobello Mushrooms

We had a pack of Portobello Mushrooms which were coming to the end of there life. So this was Sue’s take on stuffed Mushrooms.

Ingredients:-

2 Mushrooms per person
Mozzarella Cheese, cubed
2 Spring Onions, finely chopped
1 Shallot, Sliced
2 Cloves of Garlic, grated
Grated Italian style Cheese
Mixed Herbs
Margarine

Method:-

(1) Remove the stem from the Mushrooms and use a spoon to scrap out the gills.
(2) Sauté the Shallot, Garlic and Mushroom stems etc. in Margarine into softened.
(3) Place back in the cups.
(4) Sprinkle with the Spring Onions.
(5) Spread the Mozzarella over.
(6) Place in a foil lined tray and pop in the oven for 15 minutes.
(7) Sprinkle with Herbs and Italian style Cheese and place under the grill for a further 5 minutes.

We served these as a side with Allspice seasoned Pork ribs and a little home made Potato salad. For what looks like a very lite meal this was surprisingly filling.
