Mark’s Deluxe Lunch
2011
I think the biggest benefit of me cooking all these years and my kids being in the kitchen with me is that I am teaching them such a great life skill. I know lots of people who don’t cook at all and have to rely on packaged meals, cans, and take out to survive. Since my Dad was a chef growing up I spent lots of time in the kitchen with him and since my Mom made homemade food all the time, we rarely had fast food for dinner.
My husband, daughter and I were about to run errands when my son Mark who is 13 proclaimed he was starving. I hadn’t gone to the store yet, so I was looking to see if there was anything he could make. I had a package of thin chicken breasts so I quickly defrosted it for him and he stayed home to cook while we took off.
While we were coming back from errands I texted Mark to ask how his “sammich” was… this was his text back to me:
“It was yummy. It was roasted garlic and herb chicken with a butter sauce.”
I am not going to lie, I was so impressed with what he came up with. And, to boot he took a picture of it to show me when I got home, so how can I not post this?
