Chef Boyardee Little Chefs Project
I am so excited to share the Chef Boyardee Little Chefs Program with you! They’ve just created a beautiful ebook filled with hints, tips, and wisdoms from 40 great moms on how to introduce your children to the wonders of cooking. The book is supplemented by weekly online chats, each with a specific theme from the book, where you’ll get a chance to meet the mom’s behind the stories.
I’m featured on pages 4/5 in the “Feel Like a Kid Again” section. I share how we made cooking with the our kids a part of our lives and how I benefited from it as well!

This is exciting, congratulations!
I love this project! I’m in Chapter 4!
That is awesome, congrats!!
Wow that is so cool! Congrats!
Congratulations on being featured!
Cooking with the kids is not only fun but also important – it really does teach them life lessons and skills that go a long way.
And that’s what we need to remember – even though cooking by yourself usually only takes a fraction of the time!
