A little late, but last Wednesday was a wrap on the Big Bear Big Bear Arena- Chi Mukwa Summer Rec Cooking! We wanted to share some pictures from pizza day! This, by far, is the favorite cooking day, so we make sure to include it every year! We made a super easy no-cook tomato sauce and used whole wheat English Muffins for the crust. Check out this recipe from "The Food Charlatan" https://thefoodcharlatan.com/easy-no-cook-pizza-sauce-recipe/ -recipe-container-27229 that is very similar to what we did. The kids chopped the colorful veggies to go on top with choices of cheese and meat. Then we broil-baked the pizzas for a few minutes but I bet these would be great in the air fryer or microwave too!

On July 16th, it was breakfast banana splits with yogurt in place of ice cream and Grape Nuts for granola. It was a hit!

Our first two weeks cooking with the Big Bear Summer Rec kids was so much fun! Week 1, the kids put together Healthy Lunchables. Check out https://www.eatingonadime.com/make-healthy-lunchables/ Week 2, was back to basics with a classic Chicken Salad sandwich. The kids loved cutting up fruit and vegetables to snack on the side!
