Not just our students, but their parents are reaping the rewards of My Family Kitchen! 🌟 Parents are thrilled to see their kids cooking up a storm at home.

There's nothing better than being cooked for or sharing the joy of cooking for someone else. 🍳💖

Last week’s homemade granola was a hit with our My Family Kitchen students! 🎉 One student couldn’t get enough of the sweet and savory combo, while another declared, "I’m literally in heaven, this is so good!" 🙌✨ This recipe is a keeper!

Quinoa! My Family Kitchen starts next week, and our 4th and 5th graders are making fruit and yogurt cups with homemade granola, featuring quinoa. They'll learn about why a fiber and protein-packed breakfast is important and see how easy it is to whip up a batch up low-sugar granola that lasts the whole week.

Welcome back to a new semester of My Family Kitchen! I am so excited to kickstart the Spring semester today. Thank you to all of our volunteers for participating in orientation last week. Thank you to Valerie for demonstrating her phenomenal knife skills and teaching us all how to cut chicken wings.

I can't wait to see what all the young chefs cook up this semester 😄
