Illustrated by Alice Bowsher
Kids in the Kitchen Vegetarian Style!
This vegetarian cookbook is designed for kids to use. It has simple instructions with illustrated steps for each dish.
The author includes instructions for unique items such as Eye Love Bread which really looks like a giant eye, Pea-camole that is reminiscent of guacamole, but without avocados, and cheesy crackers in the shape of rabbits.
Inside, you will find recipes for things that might be expected such as salads, spaghetti and even veggie burgers. But other things have familiar names but unexpected ingredients.
For instance, there is a smoothie made with cauliflower, scones made with strawberries and beets, and cupcakes that include peas.
The author claims that all these things are delicious, and to give them a try. He is really concerned that children eat healthy, so he has worked hard to make things that kids will like and eat.
The author does eat milk, cheese, and eggs, so those things are a part of his recipes.
The illustrated directions make it easy to put these dishes together—everything written is geared to a child’s level. All the recipe pages are bright and big which will encourage them to be made. The author has made it fun to cook. Kids in grades seven to ten will enjoy this five-star book.
