Cooking Recipe Videos for Kids, Tweens and Teens

Cooking Recipe Video Playlist

Some of these great tasting and healthy recipes kids can make themselves includes a great tasting pumpkin dip, taco recipe, guacamole, chocolate chip cookies for the holidays and more.

See the Cooking Recipe Videos for the entire playlist.

The best way to get results when cooking is to read over all of the directions first, then put all of the ingredients together in one place. Also put all of the utensils and tools, measuring cups, wisk or any other
kitchen item needed together too so that once the cooking begins, it goes
smoothly with everything in plain site that is needed for the recipe.

The first part of planning to cook a recipe is to make sure all of the ingredients are in stock - otherwise the next trip to the grocery store will have the list of items needed to complete the recipe.

Have fun trying some of the delicious recipes that tweens, teens and kids can make for themselves. Cooking is fun, so give it a go!

You can watch the video playlist here:


Let the girls at Fitforafeast know if you enjoyed one of their recipes and encourage them to make more for you.

Pumpkin Seeds are Healthy For Your Skin

Halloween approaches again, and this time we will use the seeds and bake them for a delicious treat using the video recipe from the fitforafeast youtube channel.  The girls show us an easy way to bake pumpkin seeds in the oven on a flat tray.

Using different spices makes them yummy for almost any pallet.  The benefit that is coming more to light is that pumpkin seeds are good for the skin too.

Pumpkin seeds contain the mineral zinc that helps with cell rebuilding, skin growth and also helps skin wounds heal faster.  One of the best uses of zinc is to combat acne. A natural acne cure?  Instead of popping all of those zinc supplements, get the zinc naturally this Halloween season with real pumpkin seeds.

Since the body does not store zinc, we need a regular supply of it to stay healthy, to help skin grow nicer and to get rid of acne.  A bad diet can be part of the cause of acne, so combating it with good food will help improve your skin.

So get some pumpkin seeds, watch the free video on how to roast them, and make your own Halloween healthy treat this season.  Or you can buy the roasted, prepared pumpkin seeds online.
