I have always enjoyed cooking. I like to experiment and cook- the sweet-smelling of baking, the aroma of vegetables cooking in a new sauce, or simply throwing something together which everyone enjoys. 

I asked around my local community and here are some of the simple recipes that kids put together. The best part is they are healthy, easy to put together and so so tasty.
