Chef 3: Noah

Noah (6yrs) was the "Chef" tonight and he made dippers and home-made vegan pizza.  Your mouth will water when you see the pictures below!

 
Noah chopped the veggies for dippers and made the pizza- with only a little help and direction from Mom.  He enjoyed the entire process and especially liked being able to lick all the spoons at the end!

 
The other boys were VERY happy Noah chose to make home-made pizza... it's only the second time we've had it (normally, we just buy the frozen Amy's soy cheese pizza for events which require pizza).  We all agreed this is WAY better than a frozen pizza!

 
Chopping veggies for Dippers (with "Chef" apparel)

 
Pizza ingredients: 

  • Pizza pie crust (from local health food store)
  • we made Pizza sauce made from organic tomato paste mixed with lots of Italian seasoning, fresh basil & garlic
  • Almond cheese typically melts better than soy or rice cheese
  • fresh veggies:  mushrooms, tomatoes & onions
  • fresh basil snipped and sprinkled on top


 

 

 

 

 

 

 


And the pizza making begins:

 
Can you see the smiley face?
Ready to cook now--- doesn't this look gourmet?
After a long day of yard and garden work, the boys enjoyed the fruit of Noah's labor!
Noah's comments: 
"I liked making food for everyone.  I really liked wearing the chef hat and apron too.  I can't wait to do it again next time and next time and next time... all summer!"

    So cute! I have never thought about letting my six year old chop veggies! He would probably love it.

    Notice that the knife he's using is a steak knife with a serrated edge. I only let him use a REAL knife on the tomatoes and I was watching every movement. He is one of the uber careful kids, thankfully.
