There is a wide variety here... cheeseburger cups, taco soup, beef pot pie, and more. While not very sophisticated, these recipes are ones that our children enjoy eating. Sometimes dinnertime just calls for a "crowd pleaser". I hope you find these recipes useful. I would love to know what kid-friendly recipes you like to make in your household. Let us know and your comment could be chosen as comment of the week on The Daily Connoisseur.
Paprika Chicken Drumsticks with spaghetti squash and cheesy rice
This is one of my children's favorite recipes. They love chicken drumsticks! I drizzle the drumsticks with olive oil, and sprinkle on paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper. I don't usually measure the seasonings, but you could do 1 Tbs paprika and 1 teaspoon each of garlic and onion powder to be conservative. (Although I probably put about a tablespoon of each. ha!) As for salt, just use a dusting. I bake the drumsticks at 400 degrees for about 20 minutes or until the chicken is fully cooked through.
I served this with spaghetti squash. Slice the spaghetti squash in half and take out the seeds. Place the squash cut side down on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil. I baked mine for about 50 minutes. Once it is finished, take it out of the oven and allow to cool slightly. I then scoop out the squash and finish it off in a skillet with some melted butter, salt, pepper, and parsley flakes.
These cheeseburger cups were fun to make and the children loved them! I ate mine with a knife and fork because this was messy to eat. I got the recipe from Delish.

Slow Cooker Beef Pot Pie

Heather B. writes, "I find to, when my kitchen is clean and organized, I am much more enthusiastic about cooking. I love to cook, but when things get out of hand in the kitchen, I don't want to even go in there, much less cook. I have to make 3 meals, everyday, forever, lol, so an organized kitchen is a must. This was great Jennifer, thank you!"
