I’m pleased to announce that Cooking with Michele® has teamed up with The Kids Cook Monday! This wonderful initiative is working to get families to cook together and eat together, a new campaign from the same people who brought you meatless Monday. Visit their website for more information (including family recipes from me), and start cooking with your family!
Cooking with Michele on Monday classes are through for this summer now that the kids are heading back to school. If you want to schedule a private group of friends or a birthday party during the school year, please contact me!
June 13th OR July 18th- Sushi for KidsLearn how to make sushi rice, rolls, and more – and remember, sushi doesn’t ever have to include fish, so come roll up what you like and use chopsticks to eat your creations!
June 20th – Pizza Party
In this popular class we’ll make homemade dough that you can take home to make pizza for your family, then we’ll each make an individual pizza for lunch along with a salad. With the rest of our dough we’ll make some surprising other treats!

Summer in Colorado is a great time to grill, so prepare to make a complete meal on the grill. Grilled Caesar Salad, Grilled Corn on the Cob, Grilled Chicken, Grilled Potatoes, and even Grilled Peaches with Ice Cream for dessert.
August 1st – Mexican Fiesta
We’ll start this class off making homemade Guacamole and Salsa for the kids to snack on with some chips, then we’ll head right into making Chicken Enchiladas, Mexican Rice, and a Mexican Caesar Salad. Dessert will be Cinnamon Ice Cream.
August 8th – Italian for Kids
Everyone loves Italian food, so back by popular request, we’ll make Spaghetti Alfredo, Baked Ziti with homemade Marinara Sauce, Meatballs, and Garlic Bread. For dessert, we’ll make a kid friendly version of Tiramisu. And while everything is in the oven, we’ll have fun making homemade pasta to take home.

This will be a baking bonanza, with kids taking home most of their baked goods. We’ll make Chocolate Biscotti,Confetti Cupcakes, Individual Apple Tarts, and Snickerdoodle Cookies.
