Being a girl, I love to bake. It may say breakfest,lunch, or dinner, but baking you can eat for all. Also they will have fun knowing they get a sweet treat for a serious meal.

Here is a fun,easy, treat!


1 cup karo syrup
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cubes butter
1 large box Rice Chex
2 oz. sliced almonds (if you have time, you can toast them - yum!)
3 oz. coconut

In a large bowl, combine the cereal, almonds and coconut. In a saucepan, bring the corn syrup, sugar and butter to a boil. Boil 2 minutes. Pour over cereal mixture and mix well. Spread onto a cookie sheet or large sheet of wax paper to cool. Cover to store.

Enjoy!
 
Try this stuffed French toast for breakfast some time:
Slice a loaf of French bread into 3 inch slices. Cut a "pocket" in each slice, about 3/4 of the way to the other side. Stuff with your favorite meat (chopped ham, bacon slices, sausage crumbles or patties) and some cheese (swiss, shredded cheddar, or muenster).
Beat an egg or two in a shallow dish, and dip each sandwich in it, on both sides, then fry them in a hot skillet just like french toast.
You can have them for lunch, too, just stuff them with whatever they like. We've even made them sweet, with blueberry pie filling and a cube of cream cheese. Encourage them to be creative!
 
Untidy Sameuls

Probably more widely known as Sloppy Joes, these can be made with ground beef or ground turkey. This homemade version is light years ahead of anything you can buy in an envelope or can, and really just as easy. I like to serve these with paper-thin slices of red onion.

Ingredients
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 lb. ground beef or ground turkey
1 medium yellow onion, peeled and chopped fine
1/2 cup best-quality ketchup
1/2 cup best-quality chili sauce
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon coarse salt
freshly cracked black pepper
1/3 cup water
6 sesame seed topped hamburger buns, warmed

Method
Brush a skillet with oil and warm over moderate heat, 30 seconds. Add beef [or turkey] and onion and sauté 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add all remaining ingredients [except buns] and simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes. Spoon mixture between split buns and serve immediately.
