Above, Olivia, age 10, cooking French toast. Opposite, Grace, age 5, mixing the eggs.
French Toast
8 slices of bread
4 large eggs
3 Tbsp heavy whipping cream (or milk)
1 tsp pure vanilla extract
Fruit of your choice
While your pan is preheating with
butter or non-stick spray, soak each slice
of bread into an egg, milk and vanilla
mixture. Place bread into the pan for
3-4 minutes per side. When each side
is golden brown, remove and serve
with your favorite topping. A serving of
fruit such as strawberries, blueberries or
banana can be a great choice.
Mommy’s Meatballs
1 lb ground meat (beef, turkey or chicken)
½ cup breadcrumbs
1 egg
¼ cup milk
Dash of garlic powder, salt and pepper
Mix the ground meat of your choice,
breadcrumbs, egg, milk and season-ings
(optional) and then use a spoon
to dish out meatballs into a lightly
greased pan. Cook at 350 degrees for
30 minutes. Each family member can
garnish as they choose with cheese
and/or peppers and eat with or with-out
bread.
Shrimp Scampi Sauce
2 Tbsp real butter
1 tsp minced garlic
½ cup white cooking wine
On a medium heat, cook butter,
garlic and wine in a saucepan.
Make sure to use the juices from
the cooked shrimp to help create
the sauce.
