I have two boys (4.5 and 6 months) and find your stories, recipes and photos so inspiring. I try to cook with my son as often as I can, and he loves being in the kitchen. When he was 2 he asked to be a chef for Halloween and for six months slept with a plastic spatula every night. That said, I often find it daunting to try and rush to get food on the table and find a way to include him in the process. Your writing encourages me to set time aside to make it happen. We made breakfast together today, and it was worth every minute. Tonight I had planned to make this kale pesto with him, but instead threw it together like a mad woman while two kids screamed their heads off. With a little help from Trader Joe's I cheated and used already cut and washed organic broccoli, cleaned and cut kale, and grated parm/pecorino. I threw it on their whole wheat pizza dough, and topped one half with organic figs and the other with kale tossed in EV olive oil. My son licked the pesto spoon and proclaimed it delicious. After they got to bed I sat with a glass of wine and savored every bite. I followed the recipe and it was brilliant. I can't wait to try more! Thank you so much for what you have shared. You have a very lucky family.Karennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582590144748844466.post-13238590445580057132011-01-03T15:36:45.570-08:002011-01-03T15:36:45.570-08:00Just made this pesto and it's delicious.

I commend you for getting your kids involved with cooking and whole foods at such a young age -- I'm impressed. Love your blog -- I found you, by the way, through the site of my high school, College Prep. I believe you went there too? I was class of '82, it's been a while! <br />Cheers!<br />TracyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1582590144748844466.post-78256179643963176042010-02-20T18:09:06.708-08:002010-02-20T18:09:06.708-08:00I love the pesto as a delicious vehicle for gettin...I love the pesto as a delicious vehicle for getting lots of veggies into my kiddos (and me for that matter). <br />That new header photo of Dash and the brussel sprouts is great - such vibrant colors!Ehttp://yummysupper.comnoreply@blogger.com
