Pillsbury Kids Cookbook: Food Fun for Boys and Girls

This easy-going guide gets kids up and running in the kitchen with homemade meals they can make on their own or put together with a little help from mom or dad. Geared to first-time cooks ages eight and older, the book includes 66 recipes divided into chapters for every meal of the day, plus festive food for Halloween, tea parties, and slumber parties. Each recipe has a list of necessary tools and clear how-to instructions, plus a color photo and a kid-friendly tip. A special icon flags recipes that need an adult to chip in. Everyone's favorite kitchen companion, the Pillsbury Doughboy, pops up throughout the book to lend a hand and add to the fun. And it's serious fun, as children learn the basics of cooking and baking along with food safety, terms, and techniques. Best of all? They'll be able to say "I did it!" while digging into treats like Bunny Rabbit Pancakes, wowing adults with Chicken Wraps or Skillet Nacho Chili, and scaring friends with Ghosts on Broomsticks.
