Kay's New Cookbook

This is a book review by Kay. I got a new cookbook this summer called Kids Can Cook: Vegetarian Recipes. This book has many things that are vegetarian but are still like regular food. They have breakfast, soups, main dishes, desserts and even party dishes. It shows you how to set the table and what the utensils are. During the recipe it puts the things you need through the recipe instead of all at the top.

I have already made a lot of things out of this cookbook. They have all been healthy for you and easy to make. I have made about 10 recipes and I liked them all.

I would recommend this book for any kids learning how to cook or even kids that already know how.

A really easy recipe that I've made twice now is cheese dollies. Here is the recipe

Cheese Dollies

Heat the oven to 450 degrees. Oil a baking sheet. (We used parchment paper instead).

Mix with a large spoon:

1 cup flour
1 cup grated cheese or soy cheese
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 cup milk or soy milk

Drop by tablespoons one inch apart on the sheet. Set the timer for 7 minutes and bake until lightly brown. Remove from the baking sheet while warm.

We also sprinkled paprika on top of them. This makes 16 but we cut it in thirds because we were just having a snack. I made this all by myself and it was easy.

Mom (Dana): Kay has a lot of cookbooks but this is by far the best. The foods are very basic but good. The macaroni and cheese and coffee cake were our favorites so far but all of it has been good.

Well done Kay. The cheese things look delicious. I might make some for my boys' lunch today.

We checked out that meme. Lately my days have been so miserable (thanks to work) that I don't want it documented! Maybe later in the summer.
