I love cooking terrific food. Recipes that include chocolate tend to be my favorites. Unfortunately, I have a few kids who moan and groan whenever I cook something healthy. This is usually every night! I have referred many teachers to this site and have even used it for a class who was looking up International Meals for a special Parents Night!

Update: We have been making our kids cook one night a week. This is working very well since they are learning great skills as well as learning to eat new foods (since they made it). The rules are ---balanced meal (meat, starch, veggie or two), you cannot make the same dinner two weeks in a row, and clean as you go!
