Guest jenpercy Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Re sausage meat. I used to run a Woodcraft group with a doctor. He was rally concerned about the use of sausage meat with young children as there is a risk of picking up nasties if they lick fingers, or don't wash hands afterwards VERY well. you could use Granose vegetarian sausagemeat. Anyone remember good old Sosmix. We do pizza on scone base so we can mix that ourselves. Cheese scones, cheese straws, vege soup, coleslaw, fruit kebabs, various salads. we don't do flapjacks as there isn't much for children to do unless you let them melt. We have been known to make burgers from scratch (although that was older children.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cait Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 mars bar cake!!! Yummmmmmm Just melt mars bars gently and stir in rice krispies, press into a baking tray and leave to cool, spread melted choc on the top if you want. Cut into squares SIMPLES!!!!! Or pizzas, buy pizza bases and do you own thing, either big ones or use cutters to cut small individual ones (then find some ducks to feed the scraps to ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 Ah - didn't know that about sausage meat. Have to say I haven't ever used it with children - I just like making them for myself and they are really easy which is why I suggested it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sam2368 Posted April 25, 2010 Share Posted April 25, 2010 how about breadsticks, cheese straws, basic biscuits. Our children loved the muffin pizzas, very quick to cook after preparation so would fit within your hour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nickylear Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Hi I have two recipe booklets that I have made, both the 20 recipes in that I've made with groups of reception children in our after school cookery club. I've tried to upload them but it says it's failed. Maybe you can't add publisher files to the forum? (if anyone can tell me how to resolve this I will try to add them on) If anyone would like to PM me I'd be happy to send you them via email. Thanks Nicky.

HappyMaz Posted April 26, 2010 Share Posted April 26, 2010 Hi kate Everyone has to make their own decisions about whether to continue to use Sparklebox resources in the light of what we now know. Whenever anyone mentions sparklebox I provide the link again to Steve's post just so that all members can access this information, not to make any comment on the person who mentioned the Sparklebox resources.

SueFinanceManager Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Hi We were lucky enough to have a food writer as one of our mums at the nursery I worked at and she specialised in books for cooking with children. The recipes were very well tested with small children and so if you feel like investing in a cook book her books would be a good bet. Here is her website and from the from page you can see a list of all of her books. Hope this helps Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 Hi Try the Veggie muffins from the MYDADDYCOOKS website here they are really easy and quick to make and a great way to encourage veggies into the diet.
