Cooking Camp Met on January 2nd for another round of Disney-inspired meals. This session was based on ―The Princess and the Frog.‖
We made French toast and scrambled eggs for breakfast, Shrimp Po'boys and red beans and rice for lunch. We made beignets, cafe au lait and hot co- coa for our afternoon snack while we watched the movie. For din- ner we made gumbo with chicken and andouille sau- sage served over steamed rice. Our des- sert was pra- line bread pudding. All of the kids got a chance to chop, stir, measure, dice, CLEAN and taste eve- rything. We made paper crowns and lily pad center pieces.
We played Disney trivia and a few other indoor games and shared many laughs. Joining me were Deacon Julie, Kylie, Ayla, Lea, Hunter, Sophia, Mackenzie, Nate, Amelia, Shea, Bella, Valerie and Joel. We will never forget the great rice incident of 2018, or the extreme clean up that followed!
The next cooking camp theme is Disney's Aladdin! P A G E 13
