for each child that will be at the party. (you will need the latest
version of Adobe Reader) This will give them each a chance to follow
the recipe while they are preparing the menu. It is also a good idea to
include an extra one for them to take home, one that won't get messy.
They can impress their own family with what they learned at the cooking
party.
It is also a good idea to write the menu on a sheet of paper hung on
the wall or chalkboard. You can even make this look like a restaurant
menu.
Once you know the number of children coming
go through the list of things needed especially utensils, bowls, etc.
If you need extra ask friends or family if you can borrow some items

Recipe
This recipe is enough for about 6 sandwiches double the recipe if
needed. The children will be mixing their own ingredients in their own
bowl so they will be able to add and choose as they will. It is a good
idea to have extra on hand if needed for this chicken salad kids
cooking party.
3-4 cups chicken cooked and shredded or cubed
2 cups chopped celery
1 cup slivered almonds
4 hard boiled eggs or one for each child
1 cup chopped pickles
Lemon juice
Salt
Mayonnaise
Shredded cheddar cheese
Crossiants one for each child (you can
use what every type of bread you'd like)
Cook chicken ahead of time so it will be ready for the party. If you
have an older group of kids who can cut or chop with sharp knives you
can allow them to cut cooked chicken, celery and pickles with
supervision. If they are too young or you would like to do this step
yourself prepare this ahead of time.
Give each child a bowl. Have each child add about ¼ -1/2 cup of chicken
to their bowl, ¼ cup celery, a handful of almonds and a spoonful or
however much they would like of pickles. Stir ingredients together. Let
children peel eggs and chop them with a non sharp knife. Add to your
chicken mixture. Have each child add a spoonful of mayonnaise and ¼
teaspoon lemon juice. Sprinkle with salt and cheese. Mix well to
combine. Spread chicken mixture on their croissant and they can enjoy
or save until eating time.
