The Simply in Season Children's Cookbook makes cooking and gardening accessible to kids, with easy recipes, lots of photographs and fun facts about each ingredient. MCC introduces Simply in Season Children's Cookbook
Tim Shenk MCC is announcing the release of a children's cookbook inspired by Simply in Season, the popular cookbook that features seasonal, locally grown ingredients. The Simply in Season Children's Cookbook makes cooking and gardening accessible to kids, with easy recipes, lots of photographs and fun facts about each ingredient. The cookbook encourages parents and children to join together in growing, preparing and eating food together. Each seasonal section ends with mealtime prayer that could be used when the family joins around the table for a meal. Like the original, the Simply in Season Children's Cookbook offers recipes for each season with fruits, herbs and vegetables that can be grown in a home garden.
Mary Beth Lind, a co-author of Simply in Season, wrote in a brief foreword that the children's cookbook is fun to use and serves a larger purpose. "Today, faced as we are with an epidemic of overweight children whose idea of vegetables is often french fries and ketchup, it is time we redeem food from the hands of multinational corporations and cartoon commercials," Lind wrote. "It is time to put food, real food, into the hands of children and let them play."
To Order
The Simply in Season Children's Cookbook is by Mark Beach and Julie Kauffman and is published by Herald Press. Tim Shenk is a writer for MCC communications.
