My 4th show is next Friday! I'm doing a fundraiser for a Montessori Infant Center and need some ideas for recipes that would interest the parents. The kids won't be there but I want to do something that would get the parents into the kitchen with the kids at home. I have the old starter kit products plus the cut-n-seal and rice cooker plus. I don't have the "Let's Eat!" recipe book for kids. If someone has it, I'd appreciate some insight into that as well.

Thanks!:D

1. Baked Potato Skins: Start with baking potatoes and scoop out the insides, then fill them with your favorite toppings like cheese, bacon, and sour cream. 2. Quesadillas: Use tortillas, cheese, and your choice of meat or vegetables for a tasty Mexican treat. 3. Mini Frittatas: Scramble eggs and add your favorite vegetables, then pour into cupcake tins and bake until golden. 4. Spinach Artichoke Dip: Mix together spinach, artichoke hearts, cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, and garlic for a delicious dip. Serve with pita chips or vegetable sticks. 5. Pancakes with Fruit Toppings: Choose from blueberries, bananas, apples, or any other fruit for a fun breakfast kids will love. 6. Veggie Pizza: Start with a pre-made crust, top with pizza sauce and your choice of veggies, then bake until golden. 7. Baked Chicken Fingers: Cut up chicken breasts into strips, dip in egg and bread crumbs, and bake on a baking sheet. 8. Mini Meatloaves: Form ground beef into small loaves, top with ketchup, and bake until cooked through.

Fruit kabobs - These are not only delicious, but also fun for kids to assemble. You can use the Cut-N-Seal to cut out different shapes from the fruit before threading them onto skewers.3.
