Menu Planning with Kids

We may earn money from the companies or products mentioned in this post.

Yesterday I cooked up some Chicken Cordon Bleu for dinner. Sunday is always my favorite night to cook, since I have the time, and Mark home to help with the kids.
Normally I will let the girls help me cook, unless I’m handling raw meat and sharp knifes.  That was the case last night.  Princess C really wanted to help though. Since I hadn’t made our menu plan for the week yet, I told her she could help by picking a dinner. I handed her a couple of my Taste of Home magazines, and stopped cooking to look at her selections.  Princess V later joined us as well.
I really enjoy having my kids in the kitchen with me, and I think they enjoy it too.

Monday – chicken curry
Tuesday – three cheese ravioli
Wednesday – chicken and egg hash
Thursday – crockpot beef tacos
Friday – gumbo in bread bowls
Saturday – leftovers
Sunday – roast and potatoes

    my kids love helping in the kitchen, but sometimes I hit the point that I have to kick them all out.
