ππ©π½βπ³ Wondering How Kids in the Kitchen Went? π©π½βπ³π
Our Kids in the Kitchen camp was full of hands-on cooking, creativity, and learning! Hereβs what our young chefs made each day:
π Day 1: Pizza Day
Pizza dough, homemade pizza sauce, pizzas, and cannoli dip!
π₯’ Day 2: Fresh & Fun
Vietnamese rice rolls (summer rolls) and coconut cream with fresh fruit!
π Day 3: Bring It Back Home
Potato wedges, hamburgers, grilled squash and zucchini, homemade pickles, fresh fruit, coconut iced carrot cake bars, and homemade limeade!
β¨ Throughout camp, participants also learned about place settings, hospitality, table manners, cross-contamination using Glo Germ, and grill safety.
A huge thank you to Somerville Methodist Church for providing their wonderful space, our teen volunteers, and Kayla Clement from the University of Memphis Dietetics Program for helping make the program run smoothly!
