Cooking Class for kids

Well I helped with a cooking class for kids today. It was fun and the kids were well behaved. If you have never had children in the kitchen when you cook, borrow a couple and teach them how to cook.  It is a great way to see what you really know. They will ask all sorts of questions and you do have to make sure they are safe.  But who know you could have the next Emrile or Paula Deen in your kitchen.. 

I recommend it highly.  Now where did  put my cocktail??

Sandwiches

Celebrate the earl of sandwich and make something different today.  How about a Bologna with grape jelly or a peanut butter, banana and honey on wheat? Try a new combination.  It all started with the 4th Earl of Sandwich who had  too much to do that he asked his cook to put a piece of beef on a piece of bread.   Next thing you know other people tried the idea and VIOLA the sandwich was born,

So what are your ideas?

Quick Garlic Bread

If you are only cooking for two people and would like some Garlic Bread try this tip.

Crush a cloves of garlic  and add it to 3 tablespoons of butter. Add two tablespoons of Parmesan Cheese.  Cut  four pieces of bread from a loaf of French or Italian bread on the diagonal. Spread the mixture on the four slices of bread and put them in a non stick skillet on medium heat. Cook until they are golden brown.  As the butter melts the cheese will form a nice crust.

Let me know what you think of this one.

*you can also use garlic powder and some herbs too if you like. Adjust garlic to your taste.
