These 6 or fewer easy kids meals were composed with the chef intraining age group in mind. To help them continuously learn andpractice after the chefintraining cooking lessons.
However they are also great for quick easy meal ideas that your kidscan help with. As stated before these recipes were composed with7-11 years old in mind so you may adjust the recipe directions asneeded.
