illustrations by Alexandra Conn
Hailes energy and enthusiasm for educating others on how to live healthy is contagious. - Chelsea Clinton I am so excited to share my fifty favorite Supernatural Kids Recipes and all the reasons why I love them so much.
I admire Nancy Mehagians passion for healthy food and I appreciate that her recipes are foods kids can prepare and the whole family can enjoy . Ive included five of my own super YUMMY creations as well and I hope that you will enjoy making and eating all these recipes as much as I do. My love for cooking began when I was five years old. I remember having so much fun helping my mom in the kitchen, and by the time I was nine years old, I was creating meals on my own. The kitchen is my science lab, and I am not afraid to experiment in it! I also believe that learning to cook is a great stepping-stone to making other healthy lifestyle choices. Cooking has made me interested in learning more about where my ingredients come from, how nutritious they are, and definitely how to make them TASTE amazing.
Its a great feeling knowing that what I EAT will nourish my body and help me to do well in school and in my favorite fun physical activities. Dont be afraid of the kitchen . After all, these recipes were created for us! I know you will enjoy them and be inspired to concoct your own supernatural, healthy , and tasty creations for you and your family . p.s. Look for my notes on Nancys awesome recipes in this color ink throughout the cookbook. CONTENTS THE FOOD GROUPS Breakfast Snacks Vegetables Soups SALADS Main Dishes Cakes, Cookies & Desserts Extras INTRODUCTION When I was a kid , one of my jobs was to help my mom in the kitchen.
I wasnt crazy about setting the table, but loved it when she let me chop and dice the ingredients for her party appetizers or when she let me mix up pancake batter and form fun shapes on the griddle. I also loved BAKING COOKIES for my older brothers friends and getting compliments afterwards. For me, cooking has always been an adventure, just like it is for my friend Haile, who discovered her passion for healthy cooking at a really young age and has been INSPIRING kids all over the country ever since. One of my biggest adventures was opening the first vegetarian health food restaurant in Spain on a beautiful island called Ibiza. I have been conjuring up delicious and healthy foods ever since. Ive traveled the world and have never been afraid to sample new foods and cultures.
And some of the great recipes I found in my travels are here in this book. Haile and I both love to experiment in the kitchen, cooking for family and friends, and we both love to teach kids the MAGIC of taking a handful of ingredients and turning them into something special and delicious. Cooking can be a lot more fun than texting or playing video games. I hope youll discover for yourself the adventures that are waiting for you in the kitchen and that your belly will be doing a happy dance as you feed it with the food you have lovingly prepared. Youre on your way to becoming a Supernatural Kid and Junior Chef. A good chef cooks from the heart.
