Apple Jack Quesadillas

We went to the library and got a cookbook by Rachael Ray titled Yum-O. It has a lot of great recipes the kids can make or at least help to make.

Caity wanted to make dinner all by herself. That is fine with me. I do not really care to cook, so as soon as someone in my house wants to do it, I am ready to let them do it.
She made Apple Jack Quesadillas.
It is a little spicy but everyone in my house likes spicy.

Olive oil cooking spray
4 Tbp pepper jelly
4 (10-12 in) whole wheat flour tortillas
2 cups shredded Monterey Jack or Pepper Jack
1 McIntosh apple, cored and sliced thinly

Preheat oven 150 degrees

Preheat the cooking spray in the pan. Spread 1 Tbs of pepper jelly on the tortilla and place it it in the pan, jelly side up. Cover half the tortilla with about 1/2 C of cheese and 1/4 of the apple slices. Fold the naked half of the tortilla over and cook for a couple of minutes on each side until the quesadilla is brown and crispy and the cheese is melted. Keep in the oven while you make the rest of the quesadillas.


She was very proud of herself and it was very yummy!!!!!

Super Easy Volcanos

Image
I love this project it is so easy and only takes a short amount of prep time. Cheyanne loves making the volcano erupt. We used: plastic plate, plastic cup, aluminium foil, tape, vinegar, baking soda and red food coloring. Tape the bottom of the cup to the center of the plate. Cover with aluminium foil. Cut a hole in the center of the foil and push the edges down in the cup. Spoon in some baking soda. Pour in the vinegar. Watch it erupt.

Fall Toilet Paper Roll Tree

Image
This is a great craft for even young children. I think it turned out so cute. You will need: Red, yellow and orange paint, scissors, toilet paper roll, and green construction paper (or card stock). Cut the green paper into the shape of the tree top. Use fingerprints dipped in the paint as Fall leaves. Cut 2 slits down, across from each other on the toilet paper roll. Slide tree top into those slits.

Father's Day Card

If you Dad is into fishing I think this would be a great Father's Day Card for the kids to make. We used: Fish Coloring Page , tissue paper or crepe paper (cut up into sqares), glue, construction paper, wiggly eye, and a marker. Glue on pieces of the tissue paper and eye to the coloring page. Cut out the fish pattern. Glue on to folded construction paper. Write," Fishing You a Happy Father's Day !!!!" Cheyanne made one for her daddy and one for God.
