Kid Friendly Cooking I don’t know about you, but getting my kids to eat new and healthy food can sometimes be a challenge. I have found the best way to overcome that obstacle is to get them involved in the kitchen! When my kids help with a meal, they are much more likely to try new things and make healthier choices. They naturally want to try what they have made with their own hands.IMG_2339

This Kid-Friendly Bean and Rice Stuffed Burrito is super simple, tasty and you can incorporate your favorite add-ins to make it your own. For my kids, the best part is putting the toppings in. I like this with just rice and beans because it makes for a simple budget-friendly meal, but you could even add things like grilled chicken or steak.  The sky is the limit!

I think this would be a great recipe to enter into The Ben’s Beginners ™ Cooking Contest because you could make it so many different ways! I would love to hear your favorite way to spice up a burrito.
