Fun with Kids and Cooking

Did you know bullion cubes look like carmel chews.

Also, your favorite chocolate milk syrup can easily be replaced with BBQ sauce.

An early Saturday morning in front of the TV is a great time to substitute Cap'n Crunch berries with doggy kibbles.

And of course who can resist a yummy scoop of vanilla ice cream on a hot summer's day...even if that scoop is really a heaping helpin' of food shortening.

I've done three out of four, but the Cap'n Crunch doggy kibble was just nasty. 

One place I worked had a garlic-and-herb butter that looked like a fany vanilla ice cream if you scooped it right and put it into a bowl.  Stick it in the freezer for an hour and dress it up with some chocolat sauce.

Another one is the strip of fat that runs down the side of a prime rib.  It usually gets cut off and disarded.  I cut it into strips, breaded it and deep-fried it.  Put it on a plate with some dipping sauce... instant "chicken strips".
