Kid-friendly recipes

I've discovered a couple of recipes that the kids actually enjoy. They can even help, if you don't mind cleaning up afterwards. I am imprecise about amounts of ingredients because I tend to eyeball them rather than measure them, but the nature of these two recipes is that you can always add more coating material if you need it.


''Chicken Nuggets'' )


''Fish Sticks'' )


Both recipes give much tastier version of the frozen pre-packaged varieties, but I will admit to resorting to frozen pre-packaged stuff with the excuse of "Busy Working Mother".

Tomato-zucchini-goat cheese pie

Lj is my brain. So I will note this recipe here, mostly for my own future reference, but also for others to share. This was inspired by [livejournal.com profile] chenoameg's tomato pie recipe, and augmented by ideas stolen from Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone. I originally made it with insufficient cheese, so the new amount was made up. But really, you can never have enough goat cheese.

the recipe, already )

I expect it would be good with chopped spinach instead of zucchini, too.
