OMG ..this weather ...had a bad weekend, rain, fog and cold and now today little sunny. Its so difficult on kids with this constant change in weather, just too much to take. But it being sunny in afternoon had a chance to take kids out in the sun and get some Vitamin D ( as my daughter says) ..yippy!
Well how was your weekend, hope you all had fun doing something.
This week i am planning to put some recipes that kids would love to eat and can be made with groceries on hand. Please let me know anything that you might want me to address in this blog . Will be happy to help you out with.
Well so finally decided to make some hot soup for the kids last night..turned out yummy but kids did not really know the ingredients and ate it !
So made peas and carrot soup with tiny elbow macaroni pasta and goldfish crackers..
Ingredients:
1 cup frozen peas,
1 cup chopped carrots,
1 cup finely chopped onions and teaspoon of ginger if desired
1 tablespoon of butter ( generous)
salt and pepper to taste
1 table spoon heavy cream to add creaminess ( optional)
Method:
Start with 1 table spoon of butter in a pot with heavy bottom and add onion ( and ginger if desired ).
Let it cook until onions softens a little bit and now add peas and carrots and cook covered for 3 -4 minutes or until the vegetable softens a bit.
Now at this point if you wish you can either add little heavy cream to add creamy consistency or just opt it out.
Let the soup cool a little bit, then blend it in the soup/ food processor . Add salt pepper to taste and guess what you have one yummy healthy food ready in minutes to serve to your kids or the entire family.
You could also boil the paste of your choice and add it at the end when the soup is ready and sprinkle some colorful goldfish crackers to make it more palatable to the young ones.
Enjoy.
Be back tomorrow with some more.
