I find it is very import to get your kids into the kitchen and start teaching them how to cook. It is not just something I do with my daughter but my one year old son even loves to help. If you start them off at a young age they will learn that cooking doesn’t have to be a chore it can be something fun. The other day we were in the kitchen making some blueberry muffins when my daughter said mommy can we have all the berries. I thought why not I have never had a mixed berry muffin but once you make the basic muffin mix you can chose what ever you would like to be that added flavor. You can do this with what ever blend of berries you can find in season or you can use frozen berries.

You will also want to try this Blueberry bread and this strawberry skillet bread if you are a fan of berries!
