The Cookbook for Kids (Williams-Sonoma): Great Recipes for Kids Who Love to Cook
By Lisa Atwood
Weldon Owen - 2011
Bacon and Spinach Frittata : page 20
Pretty darn good fritatta, really, especially for a "cooking with kids" book. I did make a half-recipe... except for the bacon, which I left at its normal proportion. (Which might mean this recipe should call for some salt and pepper in its normal proportions.)

Berry and Yogurt Parfaits : page 27
It's a yogurt parfait; it's as good as your yogurt and berries are. But it's also a dish my kid can put together entirely on his own, and experiment a little with plating artistically. So points for that.
(Don't tell Williams-Sonoma, but we found that my highball glasses are just about the perfect size for a yogurt parfait.)

Biscuit-Wrapped Hot Dogs : page 52
It's "pigs in a blanket"; there's not much to it. But heck, it was fast and let me cook with my kid. (His review was that he'd rather figure out how to do corn dogs at home.)

Sauteed Bananas with Yogurt and Honey : page 111
Dead simple, but a pretty pleasant summer dessert. I might do a large chop instead of a slice next time; as the bananas cook they can become a little chewy (especially if they're not perfectly ripe yet).
