Cooking with Abby: Each week, Chef Abby will teach basic kitchen and culinary skills, and kitchen safety. We will cook together. Kids eat what they cook, and when appropriate and available, kids will be allowed to bring their food home to their family. Below is a sample menu and ideas. I typcially give kids choices. They end up tasting lots of things and expanding their pallets!

Week 1: Knife Skills & Sauce Basics

• Healthy Salads with Protein

• Abby's Favorite Vinaigrette adapted from Jacques Pepin

• Macaroni and Cheese from Scratch (Julia Child's French Version)
