Win Tickets to the Kids Food Festival!

I’m a huge advocate of childhood nutrition and even helped my daughter’s public school be the first to achieve the U.S. Healthier School Challenge. When I was asked to be involved in the first annual Kids Food Festival in New York City I happily agreed.

What’s the Kids Food Festival?
The Kids Food Festival was established to promote wholesome lifelong habits to help prevent childhood obesity. On January 21-22, 2012 the New York City-based festival will offer fun workshops and activities like a food themed scavenger hunt, food tastings, and more. I am thrilled to be demonstrating my Mango Stuffed Challah French Toast from my new book Comfort Food Fix at the James Beard Foundation’s Future Foodies Pavilion on Sunday the 22nd at 11am.

Kids in the Kitchen
Cooking with your kids is an important part of teaching them a healthy lifestyle and the best way to get them to try new tastes. Spend time with your children finding delicious recipes, making a shopping list, going to the market, and getting down and dirty in the kitchen. It’s one of my favorite ways to spend time with my daughter.

Enter to Win!
I’m giving away a VIP family 4 pack to my workshop at the Kids Food Festival this Sunday 1/22/12 at 11:00am. This includes:

---Family 4 pack tickets for 2 adults and 2 kids (under 12 years)

Our big family favorite is Breakfast Pizza, made with crescent rolls, eggs, grated potatoes, milk, sausage and fresh grated cheddar cheese....not the most healthy thing in the world, but once every few months it's a terrific family indulgence! Hubby cooks the sausage and we all take turns layering the dish. Yum, great family togetherness and fun, but somehow they always leave the cleanup to me! Thanks Ellie!

This also pretty much guarantees that he'll eat at least a bit of the food- if he made it he will try it :)

I always enjoy getting my kids in the kitchen to cook with me. My son loves to make different kinds of pancakes and grilled cheese sandwiches. My daughter loves muffin Monday! We like to start off the week with something healthy and sweet. Our family favorite is pumpkin muffins.
