Food is FUN!

27 Jul Food is FUN!

Food is not only essential for our survival, but it can also be a fun and enjoyable experience. From trying new recipes to exploring different cuisines, there are countless ways to have a good time with food.

Get creative in the kitchen.

One way to make food more fun is to get creative in the kitchen. Experiment with new ingredients or try making a new dish from scratch. Food is art and fun to tap into your creative side with presentation! Fun foods like pasta salad can be made so much more filling AND nutrient dense by using alternative pastas such as Banza or bionaturae. Fancy or not, its amazing how fueling your body with good foods will make you feel good!

Explore different cultures through their cuisine.

Whether its Ethiopian, Mexican, Chinese, Peruvian, the list goes on…We love having fun with food and trying new things. Trying new restaurants or cooking traditional dishes from different countries can be a fun and educational experience.

Cook together.

Get your kids involved in the cooking process by having them help you measure out ingredients or stir the pot. This will not only make them more excited to eat the food, but it will also help them develop important cooking skills. Crank up some tunes and have some fun in the kitchen! If this overwhelms you, you’re not alone! We work with busy families every day to help them find margin and enjoy cooking together.

Add color.

Not only does color make the food more visually appealing, it is more nutrient dense with all those phytonutrients! Check out your farmers market or grocery store for all the colors in the produce section!

Get out of the house.

Try taking your food outside for a picnic or barbecue. Eating outside can make the experience more fun and enjoyable for everyone. Camping food is some of our favorites!!

Experiment with flavors.

Food experiments are so fun! Try different flavor combinations to make the food more interesting. For example, you could try adding different spices or herbs to a dish to give it a unique flavor. Our kids are always coming up with fun combinations for taste sensations!

Share the experience.

Food is always more fun with family or friends! Food isn’t only about nourishment, it’s also about having fun. Food can also be a social experience. Hosting a dinner party or potluck with friends can be a great way to share food and conversation. And let’s not forget about food-themed events like food festivals or farmers markets, which can be a great way to sample different foods and meet new people.

Whether it’s trying new recipes, exploring different cultures, or sharing food with friends, there are countless ways to make food a fun and enjoyable experience!
