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…...

Chicken & Mushroom Pasta / Rice Noodles

Ingredients:-

Cooked Chicken, chopped
1 medium Onion, diced
2 cloves of Garlic, minced
Chicken stock
Mushrooms, roughly chopped
Frozen Peas
Milk
2 tbsp of Creme Freche
Cheese, grated
Salt & Pepper
Italian style grated Cheese to garnish

Method:-

(1)  Fry the Onion until translucent, add the Garlic and cook for 2 minutes on a lower heat.
(2) Add the Mushroom and Chicken stock and simmer.
(3) Add the Milk, Chicken and Peas and simmer.
(4) Season with Salt & Pepper.
(5) Stur in the Creme Freche followed by the grated Cheese and simmer until the Cheese has melted.

We served ours on a bed of Chinese Rice Noodles as a change from Gluten free Pasta which worked equally well. This dish was inspired by Sue's Chicken Skillet Pasta, which was a great seller when we were at The Inn on The Green a couple of years ago.
