My kids love to be in the kitchen and help as much as they can. It usually involves the use of a plastic knife. In many cases I allow them to cut up fruit or slices of cucumber or spreading almond butter on a slice of bread. I think having them participate makes eating their meals much more successful. I hope they will make healthier choices in their futures by understanding what they are eating.
These pasta monsters were so much fun. Sometimes I just need to let the kids play with their food, this was one of those times. I took raw hot dogs and cut them into 1 1/2" pieces and gave them uncooked pasta to stick into the hot dog pieces. After they were loaded, I put them into a pot of boiling salted water. just until the pasta was done. The kids couldn't wait to eat them!!! These were so much fun!!!

| Cut the hot dogs into 1"- 1 1/2" pieces and stick the uncooked noodles through the pieces. |
 |
| Stick them in your pot and as the noodles soften they will fall into the pot. |

| Add your favorite sauce, cheese, or eat just like this!!! |
