Here are a few highlights of the kids in the kitchen on Tuesday!
Elias and Justus made scrambled eggs completely by themselves. They made a great team!
You should have heard Justus (the professional egg scrambler) explaining to Elias the way to scramble eggs… It was SO cute!
For lunch, the boys made Shepherd’s Pie. Justus and Asa peeled the potatoes…
And Justus started browning the meat.
Elias and Malachi helped mix the soup and veggies into the pot of meat.
And Elias whipped the potatoes.
Then, each boy made a “personal” Shepherd’s Pie. (Sorry for the smudge on the bottom left of the picture…I SO needed to wipe off my lense! Also, can you tell that I had different aged guys putting on their potatoes? Who do you think did the one on the top right?!)
For dinner, the boys helped me make Chicken Tortilla Soup. Justus used the food processor to chop up the tomatoes and chili peppers.
Asa poured in the chicken broth.
Malachi added the chicken and the corn.
Everyone got to help tear up tortillas…
And, YUM…you have to try this soup that they made!!!! It is so good!!
Allright…the dishes are done and the boys are off duty for the night! See ya tomorrow!
Yum that sounds good! I love the picture of Elias sitting on the counter! Good thing you have lots of counter space! Too cute! :-)
I am LOVING catching up on your Kids int eh Kitchen series. My boys aren’t solid readers yet, but I really want to get them in the kitchen. My problem is being too grumpy and controlling at dinnertime. But I think I’ll let them make shepherd’s pie this week. :)
