Head Chef Notes
Our Kids-Cooking-Activities.com Cooking Camp is ready!
In the past I have set up the cooking camp to be sent out by email each week with a new lesson. However, since I'll be moving this summer and many people have lost their passwords in the past and had problems getting each week's emails, I'm going to make this easier for both of us.
The Kids Cooking Camp is now compiled into a pdf ebook that is easy to read and download. You will have the whole summer's worth of lessons at once. And you can buy the last three years together in a special deal if you choose.
See details on all kids cooking camps here.

Summer Recipes
Refreshing Cucumber Salad Bowls3 large cucumbers
1 (6 oz) can tuna in water, drained well
2 hard boiled eggs, chopped
1/2 Cup celery, chopped fine
1 tbsp sweet onion, chopped fine
1/4 Cup mayonnaise
2 tbsp relish
1 tsp. lemon juice
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 Cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
Cut the cucumber in half lengthwise.
Remove the seeds and cut the bottom so the cucumbers set flat.
Place the tuna, eggs, celery and onion into a large mixing bowl.
Stir slightly to help breakup the tuna.
Add the mayonnaise and relish.
Stir together until the mayonnaise is slightly smooth.
Pour in the lemon juice.
Sprinkle in the pepper.
Stir to mix well.
Sprinkle in the cheese and continue stirring until all the ingredients are incorporated together.
Fill each cucumber half with the tuna mixture.
Cucumber boats can be filled with any type of salad. Egg salad, chicken salad or even ham salad make a great addition to any picnic.
Fruity Ham Bundles
1 (3 oz) pkg. cream cheese, room temperature
1 tbsp orange marmalade
1/3 lb. ham, cut into 4 in wide strips
2 kiwi, peeled and sliced
Place the cream cheese in a small mixing bowl.
Add the marmalade and blend together well.
Cover one side of each ham slice with the mixture.
Lay a piece of kiwi at one end and roll the kiwi up in the ham slice.
Secure with a toothpick.
Chill until ready to serve.
These are an easy solution to a picnic appetizer. Any tropical fruit such as mango, papaya or even pineapple work well. You can also use pineapple marmalade for a something a little different.
