"Because I love the FOOD at breakfast," he said. I love breakfast food, too -- warm toast and crunchy bacon and soft cooked eggs and waffles and...
Mmm delicious.
My kids and I will sometimes eat breakfast for dinner, particularly when my husband has a late meeting, so I'm always looking for options beyond the cereal bowl. Which is why I love Easy Kids Recipes so very much.
Easy Kids Recipes is the brainchild of Clarissa, a mom of four: "I came up with the idea of this website back in 2003 because I wanted to share recipes and encourage moms, dads, and kids to cook healthy, delicious meals that are quick and easy (believe me, I appreciate the need to prepare a quick meal!)." Her recipes are indeed quick and easy and healthy, as well as being creative and downright fun.
My favorite section of the site is the breakfasts, which has a nice selection of simple meals that are equally appropriate for morning or evening. The Fruity Omelet and Cottage Scramble are both sounding good today, in fact. Clarissa also has recipes for a couple of breakfast casseroles -- perfect for family entertaining.
Easy Kids Recipes began with Clarissa's own family recipes, but has now grown to include reader-submitted recipes. The kid-friendly recipes are categorized by meal (lunch) and ingredient (vegetable); there's a special section for birthdays (oh my gosh you HAVE to see the COOKIES! so cute). You can make these things for your kids, but you can also make them WITH your kids, which is half the fun.
This week, think about having breakfast for dinner -- get your kids to help, and then eat in your pajamas. Kids think that's the coolest thing ever, I promise.
