The month of September is all about raising awareness regarding childhood obesity and supporting children learning about living a healthy lifestyle (see information below). Part of learning about health is learning about healthy eating. The best way to do that is to participate in cooking. Kids can make the best chefs because they are curious, eager to try new things and best of all, they love to share!

- 12 Muffin Tin Liners
- Canola Oil Cooking Spray

2.
Spray the muffin tin cups with cooking spray.
3.
Place muffin tin liners in each muffin cup and spray with cooking spray.
4.
Fill a ⅛
cup LivSpoon with combinations of ingredients (recommended: ½ each of the
listed
ingredients within each category to follow prescribed
combinations; or make up your own). Fill
the LivSpoon twice, emptying the ingredients into the
muffin tin liners.
 |
| LivSpoons make it so easy to mix and match right-sized ingredients |
5.
Once ingredients are chosen and placed in the muffin liners, fill each liner
with 1 to 2
LivSpoons-ful of whisked egg, until the liner is nearly
filled with liquid egg.

6.
Place the muffin pan in an oven pre-heated to 375°. Bake for 20 minutes or
until golden brown
on top. Serve immediately. Serves 12.
- Tip 1: Whisk all egg types. The egg will rise better.
- Tip 2: Whole eggs rise best and are most easily removed from the liners.
- Tip 3: Careful what fruit or vegetable you use. If they have two much water/moisture in them they won’t bake well.
- Tip 4: Spray muffin tins in addition to liners for easy clean up.
Enjoy!
And Live Vibrant!
