Kid-Friendly Chocolate Cut-Out Cookies — The Skinny Fork by Gordon Ramsay

Without further adieu, below is what my 9 year old mini-me wrote up about her cookies!

I should note too, that she also took the pictures of mixing up the batter.

Hi, this is the Skinny Fork’s daughter, Lily! So, this is basically how my mother and I made Chocolate Cookie Cut-Outs. To make them a tad bit healthier, we used natural sugar, whole wheat white flour instead of regular flour, and we also used dark cocoa powder instead of plain. Those are pretty much all the ingredients we replaced. So, this is pretty much an easy recipe for kids. And another thing we did to make these cookies was chill them for a long time, and if you don’t chill them they would get spread out and not look as good. Next time you and your kids are bored together, try this recipe! Anyways, the Little Fork is out!

Kid-Friendly Zucchini Sushi — The Skinny Fork by Gordon Ramsay

Ugh… Back-to-school is coming up which is definitely a bittersweet time of year for me. I love having my mini-me around during the summer to plan and do all the fun things together. It’s been a good summer so far. Light and easy, just like this Kid-Friendly Zucchini Sushi!

Unlike traditional sushi, this is completely a kid centric style. You won’t find any raw seafood here. Nope! Just meat, cheese, carrots, and a zucchini shell. These little Kid-Friendly Zucchini Sushi bites are perfect for lunch boxes and finger-food snack or lunch plates.

Kid-Friendly Spring Snack Mix — The Skinny Fork by Gordon Ramsay

Of course, since this mix is for the kids, I didn’t stick so much with ‘healthy’ or ‘skinny’ as I did with focusing on ‘better options’ such as whole grains, organic, and gluten-free pieces to go into this mix. I also try to stick with a blend of half sweet and half savory so that the kids aren’t fully loaded with sugar at the end of the day.

Most of the bits and pieces in here come from the same organic brand that’s well known for it’s bunny shapes. In fact, almost everything, except for the candies and marshmallows are all from that same brand and it happens to be one of my favorites.
