Week 1: Ballpark Theme


Our little chefs stepped up to the plate and made a variety of Ballpark foods this week in Taste Buddies!

The first thing we made this week was Chili Dogs. We started by painting our hot dog buns with mustard, then placing our Turkey Dogs inside the bun. The buddies then dumped onions, cheese, and chili on top of the dogs and placed them in the oven to get a toasty chili dog.

Next, we made a tasty side of fruit nachos. Chef Marc crisped some wheat tortillas and sprinkled cinnamon and sugar on top to get a sweet chip base for the nachos. Our buddies added vanilla pudding on top of the chips and sprinkled some delicious fruit such as blueberries, strawberries and kiwis to make a beautiful plate of fruit nachos.

We topped off class by making a Funfetti Puppy Chow. Buddies shook up bags of rice chex cereal, white chocolate, yellow cake mix and stunning sprinkles to make a delectable dessert for our day at the ballpark. 

These cooking experiments can be easily conquered in your home kitchen!
