What recipes do you think are basic for a girl's collection of recipes ... or a boy, if he likes to cook?
Hi
A friend of mine told me that when she was 9, her mother started her out with a recipe for a vanilla cake, and one for a chocolate cake .. and then they worked on frostings and fillings ... etc.
What do you consider basic recipes for a child's collection? Please, no stuff from websites ... I would like to know what YOU think!
Did you have a recipe stash when you were young? I did ... I started with fruit drinks.
Ta!
The first good and basic things I learned to make when I was young and cooking with my mom or grandma were:
mashed potatoes
baked chicken
chicken soup
meatballs
pasta sauce
apple crisp
