When I work with kids I turn into a creative mind; they're my inspiration. This is why I enjoy teaching my Kid Chef classes. I love showing them how to dress a table, how to combine flavors and texture, and how to enjoy fun food. There's one recipe in particular that we invented in class that I want to share with you, it's made with French toast stuffed with strawberry cream cheese, and covered with crunchy cereal. Adults love this recipe as much as kids. You can have it for breakfast, brunch or as dessert.
