Sugar cookies are always easy and fun.:


AND, you can now buy the dough pre-made. Buying toppings (sprinkles, choco chips, icing)


Mini pizzas is always fun too:


Use english muffins as the ';dough'; have a bowl full of basic tomato sauce(ragu is cheap and the meat sauce is good) Toppings are just as easy.


Only 2 ideas, but maybe it will help.Simple recipes for cooking with kids?
microwave
make your own pizzas--you can buy the crust or make it, or use English muffins as the crust. The kids can add the toppings they like. Sugar cookies are easy and fun, let the kids do the mixing and decorating. If you have access to a grill, you could do do grilled cheese or ham and cheese sandwiches. Kids love smoothies, too. Just toss some fresh or frozen fruit in the blender with plain yogurt and a few ice cubes. You can experiment to see what kind of fruit works best, and add flavored yogurt if the kids want to.
pizza pinwheels......kids and adults both love these





*frozen puff pastry


*tomato sauce/paste


*whatever fillings tickle their fancy (ham, pineapple, mushrooms, capsicum, olives etc etc)


*mozzerella cheese (holds them together the best but can be made without for anyone who is lactose intolerent)





put tomato paste all over the thawed puff pastry leaving a 2cm strip along one side. sprinkle cheese over the sauce and choice of ingredients. turn so the strip left plain is furthest away from you and lightly brush the strip with water. roll the pastry away from you towards the strip and make sure the strip sticks. cut into approx 6-8 pieces and bake with the cut side on the tray with baking paper and facing up if you get what i mean (not on its side) at 180 degress for 15-20 mins depending on thickness or untill browned........enjoy





i probably made it sound complicated but it is so easy and yummy.....great party food too!

i hope my low budget college recipes for meals helped u:)
fruit pizza is a great (and healthy choice)


The crust is a rolled sugar cookie recipe then put a cream cheese/ sugar mixture on top. Cover it with various fruits and enjoy. Depending on what fruits you use you may need to cover the fruits with a glaze to keep them from spoiling. You can also make sherbert, frozen yogurt popsicles, jello jigglers, and a fruit salad
Cheesy Hot Dogs in Crescent Rolls


Hot Dogs


Crescent Rolls


Sliced cheese


Have the kids roll the hot dogs along with a 1/2 piece of cheese in the crescent roll. Place on a cookie sheet and bake as directed for rolls. The rolls will give a sweet taste to the hot dogs and children seem to enjoy them. You can also use different condiments to dip them into. My children thought it was fun to make their own.
Cupcakes. Fun to make and decorate.


You could make spaghetti bolognese if you had a cooktop.


Cookies... The kids can make their own shapes with cookie cutters.


Chocolate crackles and honey joys.


Do a make your own ice cream day, have different types of ice creams, sauces, toppings and cones.


Tacos.


Pizzas on flat bread.


Icy poles from fruit juice and cordials.


Fruit jelly.


Fruit salad.





Hope that was a little help. Good luck with you cookery classes!
