MasterChef Junior Cookbook: Bold Recipes and Essential Techniques to Inspire Young Cooks

My eleven year old daughter loves to cook and enjoys watching foodTV. She is pretty skilled and unfortunately most of the kids cookbooks are really dumbed down (using boxed cake mixes and jars of jam) so they don't really "cook." On the same note a lot of mainstream cookbooks are obviously adult geared. This book is a fantastic compromise of taking real recipes and making them easy for a kid to read and follow. She made these fantastic pork chops the other day with a mustard sauce that I couldn't get enough of. There are some great veggie dishes as well, and as we have learned in our house - you have much better chance of your kid eating veggies if they are part of the creation process. Great book for a budding chef :)

Nice purchase on a great book. Fast delivery.

Good cookbook for juniors

While the recipes are created and prepared by junior chefs, it is not for the novis chef. My 12 year old has loved all the Gordon Ramsey shows since he was little including Masterchef Jr. I was excited to get him this as part of a gift and he enjoyed looking through the recipes. However, I will warn that most of the recipes are more complicated or require a lot of equipment (pressure cooker for example) that not everyone has in their kitchen. We did make the chicken lolly pops twice and he enjoyed those. Since he was cooking for 1, we had plenty of left over sauce which cut down on prep time the second time. We will try some other recipes but likely not going to use this book as often because we don't own all the equipment required to make the dishes.

Gift made him happy

My Son loves this book. We watch Master Chef Junior all the time and hes making more foods. Which is hard for him. Hes Autistic but he sees these 8-12 year olds banging out gourmet entrees. Get this book for your kids! Or yourself honestly the recipe’s are epic.

My niece was learning to cook! This book has simple recipes for kids to understand and they are mostly all delicious from what we have tasted so far! Not bad for a beginner kids cookbook!

Great easy to follow and educational recipes. My teenage granddaughters love them. Would definitely recommend makes a great gift..

Gave away for a Christmas gift and made a young person super excited. I can't wait to try some of the cooki g from the book. Looks like great recipes

Gave it to our Granddaughter for her birthday as she wanted a cookbook that was challenging. She loved it.

Great book for kids who love cooking

Colourful and clear without needing a commercial kitchen to create.

Great pressy for my 10 year old that likes a challenge and loves baking
