Fun Summer Activities with the kids in the kitchen

Make time for movie nights.

One activity that is a must during the summer is family movie nights! My kids are all about this. Allow your kids to pick out their movie. Then prep the movie snacks, like popcorn and these Betty Crocker™ Cookie Cups. Have you seen these in Walmart yet?

All for summer fun in the kitchen.

The summer months is also the perfect time to get your kids in the kitchen. The school year can be a little hectic with all the after-school homework and activities. Kids can learn so much from baking and cooking. They will also appreciate all that goes into it as well when they are behind the scenes!

Staying hydrated by the pool

Let them have fun and be creative with recipes. Of course, find ones that are easy for them to do and always supervise. One of my kids’ favorite things to do in the kitchen is baking. These Betty Crocker™ Cookie Cups are super easy and come with everything you need, minus the butter and the muffin pan. My four-year-old was even all about baking these, even more so about eating them!

Staying hydrated outdoors with water fun.

The summer months are all about getting outdoors. When you are in the south, it can be even more difficult to be outdoors during the hot months. This is where you make the most of it all with water fun. Water balloons, pool time, water guns, any type of activity to make the summer heat cooler with water. My kids do not have any problem with having this type of summer fun when water is included! Do not forget the snacks while you are at it!

Another easy weekday dinner idea? I got you with t Another easy weekday dinner idea? I got you with this Chicken Pot Pie made with @keystonemeats . This recipe is so good, so simple, and cozy ( y’all know what I mean 😂). The Keystone Canned Chicken makes it easier with it being fully cooked premium meat - NOTHING to thaw or cook, and it  only contains 2 clean ingredients. 

Chicken Pot Pie:

Filling-
1 can of KEYSTONE Canned Chicken, 28oz (drained)
2 can of Cream of Mushroom Soup, 10.5oz
1 cup of chicken broth 
1 bag of frozen mixed veggies, 16oz

Topping -
1 cup of milk
1 cup of self-rising flour
1 stick of butter, melted

Mix the filling ingredients and pour into a 9x13 casserole dish or a large deep dish pie dish ( like me!). Mix the topping ingredients, then pour on top. Bake uncovered at 450 for ~45 minutes or until golden brown.

Grab your KEYSTONE Canned Chicken online, Walmart, Kroger, Giant Eagle, or Meijer!

Brown ground meat and sauté onions on med-high heat; add tomatoes and sauce and cook until tomatoes cook down, add seasonings; add noodles and broth; make sure all noodles are covered before putting lid on pan. Cook for about ~15 minutes, until noodles are al dente. While noodles cook, prep ricotta cheese mixture ( ricotta, 3/4c mozzarella and 1/4c Parmesan) as well as seasoned with Italian seasoning and salt.

Once noodles are done, fold in ~1/4c mozzarella then top with more mozzarella and place lid- heat on low - just to melt cheeses; now top with ricotta mixture and place in oven under broil with no lid long enough to lightly brown ricotta cheese and melt it.
