***Attention Parents: Please be aware that the "Cooking ..W/O ..Fire!" recipes being presented "do" include "fruits, nuts, seeds, and spices" that may or may not affect your child. Please ask about possible substitutions for items that could cause reactions.*** The experience for today is to guide students in preparing a new "raw" food recipe item: Raw Brownies. We will begin by reviewing any vocabulary words that are needed for making healthy, informed, food choices, and for the cooking lesson.

The student will choose whether or not they'd like a brownie with a "little" or a "lot" of moisture in the taste of their chocolaty brownies.

I am offering this class to give students practical experiences of "Camp Snack!" No-Bake Raw foods are healthy choices for children to make, and the more opportunity they have to try new things, foods, methods of preparations, the more likely they are to develop a habit of choosing healthy foods that they "know something" about.Reviews
