This cookbook surprised me! These recipes don't rely on a lot of processed food for ingredients but, rather, use (mostly) "real" whole food ingredients. For example, the "morning muffins" include bananas, apples, carrots, and raisins. A few recipes call for a jar of tomato sauce, for example, but parents can still control that and buy whatever variety they choose. For a "character cookbook," we were pleasantly surprised!The recipes are also simple enough that we can make them with my 3 year old daughter before she loses interest and she can take on a lot of the steps (with supervision). The recipes aren't anything revolutionary, but they offer very cute takes on traditional recipes that I know our kids will eat
If you have little ones who love Disney and cooking, then this is a must have! Everything in this cookbook is kid friendly. With directions that are easy to read and follow along, and pictures that are mouthwatering, this is a book that offers hours of fun in the kitchen for you and your little one(s), while making up healthy food to eat.As soon as this book arrived, my daughter snatched it right up and began looking through it, searching for various foods we could start making up. My daughter and I have also picking up other Disney children's cookbooks which have been offered through the Scholastic Book Fair at my kids's school. Like those, this one is definitely worth adding to your collection of books/cookbooks at home.One of our favorite recipes we've made so far is the whole wheat Mickey Mouse french toast. For me as a parent, it was priceless seeing my little girl get all excited about making a meal. Though I helped her with some of it, she was so happy to be able to do something like this mostly on her own. Unfortunately we didn't have round cookie cutters to use to make Mickey Mouse french toast, but that didn't take away from the from. Instead it gave us a great idea to make other shapes. For me, I loved this idea of thinking outside of the box when it came to making french toast. I've never thought of making shapes before. It was incredibly easy using cookie cutters to cut shapes into the bread.In my opinion, you can't go wrong with The Minnie & Friends cookbook. It's a must have!
Not too impressed mainly because the recipes aren't anything special or unique, they just add a Disney name to a very common food, i gave it 3 stars because most kids are picky eaters & these recipes will likely catch their interest
This cookbook was the perfect gift for my 8 year old daughter. She loves to cook and contributes when it comes time to plan meals. The meals in this book are so creative. Of course we love Disney in our home so having these recipes model after Disney films is great! The recipes are not hard to make and they include a wide variety of whole grains, fruits, and veggies. The pages are very colorful and the pictures of the finished recipe are large. The cookbook includes a lot of fun decorations and special touches you can add. My daughter has had a lot of fun working her way through cooking this cookbook. It is definately a high quality, well put together cookbook to get your child interested in cooking and meal/snack planning. Would definately recommend!
A few things I really like about this book. The ingredients are things that I already have on hand and don't have to buy something strange to accomplish the recipe. My 10 year old daughter can make something ON HER OWN or with a small amount of direction from me. She loves that independence and being able to contribute to dinner. It has a variety of recipes like any normal cook book (apps, drinks, desserts, sides, entree). Easy to read, and a photo for each recipe!
My four year old has recently taking up a knack for helping mommy cook. She got this cookbook for Christmas and loves to pick out things to make . This book is nice because it uses whole, good for you ingredients.
I collect all the Disney cook books. I was thinking that it will be for little children only, but to my surprise it can be used for adults as well. The pictures are marvelous, and the pages of the book are shiny, and the cookbook itself is a treasure. I love it even holing it in my hands. Thank you for this marvelous book.
This is a cute little cookbook with recipes that fairly young kids can make. Some of the recipes have more details to them then I cared for, but you can easily skip the fancy decorations. As a plus, you might get kids to eat vegetables because it's a recipe by their favorite character.
