Now You're Cooking
70 Recipes That Kids Can Make. Jolene Cox is an award-winning food writer on a mission to teach kids how to cook real food they’ll love to eat.
Her daughter, Lily Mae, is 11. They’ve been cooking together ever since Lily Mae could sit up in a feeding chair.
Jolene launched the Family Cooking Club (a weekly online cook-along showing kids how to make delicious meals) with Lily Mae in 2019 and soon discovered that the kids engaged more when encouraged to take the lead.
Jolene and Lily Mae have put everything they’ve learned since then into Now You’re Cooking!, a cookbook with kids at its centre. They speak directly to kids, sharing all their clever tips and tricks and 70 tried-and-tested recipes appropriate for kids aged 5 to 12.
Beginning with basics like perfect mashed potatoes, cracking egg-fried rice and a classic tomato sauce, Jolene and Lily Mae then share their favourites for breakfast, lunch, after-school fuel, tray bakes and one-pot wonders, epic eats and sweet treats that every kid will enjoy.
More than that, Jolene and Lily Mae want to show kids that cooking is something anyone can do at any age. Whether you’re boiling an egg for the first time or ready to level up your knife skills, now you’re cooking!
