Families love Nomster Chef!

Chef Sam.png
We made the chicken finger recipe today. Sam has refused to eat chicken for about 6 months now. He said it was “the best chicken finger in the whole world.” And wait for it… he also ate a Brussel sprout and loved it! I almost fainted. Sam does not eat green things. I have no words. I just keep telling everyone how incredible this is. Thank you thank you!
— Rachel, mom of Sam (age 4)

We’ve made the chicken fingers with butternut and Brussels sprouts many times now, but the first time we made it was Abbie’s first time eating butternut squash. She loves it so much now that if she’s being a bit naughty while we’re grocery shopping, I threaten to take the squash out of the cart. What kid is bribed by butternut squash?! Thanks Nomster Chef!

She was soooo excited to open her Nomster package on Christmas morning! She uses all of the tools and won’t cook without her apron. She made the chicken Thursday night and then on Friday morning asked what she could make for breakfast! We had the ingredients for the mug muffin so she made that. Then she wanted to make a Nomster pizza over the weekend. She did it totally independently (other than the oven)! She is absolutely loving it :)

4 reasons every kid should learn to cook

#1:

Fun family bonding time

Chances are you remember special times cooking with someone in your family. Give your kiddo the gift of happy memories that will last a lifetime.  

#2:

HEALTHY HABITS

Encourage your kids to branch out from mac and cheese. Did you know that kids are more likely to eat food that they've helped to cook?

#3: 

RISING PAST RAMEN

Make sure your children can fend for themselves when they leave the nest. Home cooking is healthier and less expensive than takeout. Give them a life skill they can use as grown-ups!

#4:

SNEAKY SCHOOL SMARTS

A bonus: there's lots of learning hidden in cooking! Kids can learn literacy, math, social studies, science, motor, and cognitive skills from cooking.
