  • Introduction to Me and Why I Started This Podcast Well, hello there and welcome to the very first episode of Cooking With Teens I'm so excited to get this podcast started. But before we dive in, you might be wondering, who is this person and why should I listen to her? I’m a mom of five, with kids ranging from three to 21. I'm also an adoptive mom; my twin girls were adopted as teenagers and are now young adults. With this diverse family dynamic, I've got plenty of experience navigating the teenage years. Beyond parenting, I'm a total food lover. I come from a long line of food-obsessed folks, and I love developing recipes and even published a cookbook a few years ago. Cooking is my passion, and I've learned a lot from classic Food Network shows. Now, let's dive into why cooking with your teens is so important and how it can benefit your family. Why Cooking With Teens Is Important Building Stronger Bonds Through Cooking Cooking with teens offers a unique opportunity to bond over shared activities. It’s a fantastic way to communicate and connect with your teenagers on a deeper level. When you cook or prep together as a routine, even if it’s just twice a week, your older children know they’re expected to help out in some way. This shared responsibility can lead to meaningful conversations and strengthen your relationship. When you're in the kitchen together, the atmosphere is relaxed and collaborative. You're not sitting across from each other at a table, which can sometimes feel confrontational. Instead, you're side by side, working towards a common goal. This setup naturally encourages open communication. Your teen might start talking about their day, their friends, or even their worries, simply because the environment feels safe and non-judgmental. Teaching Valuable Life Skills Involving teens in the kitchen helps them learn essential life skills. Cooking is more than just following a recipe; it’s about understanding nutritional values, learning how to budget for groceries, and developing time management skills. When teens know how to cook, they are equipped with a critical life skill that will serve them well into adulthood. Knowing that your child can not only feed themselves but also nourish themselves is a gift. It’s empowering for them to create a meal from scratch and see the fruits of their labor. They learn about portion control, the importance of balanced meals, and how different ingredients work together to create delicious food. Creating Lasting Memories and Teaching Responsibility Family meals are more than just food; they are about creating lasting memories. Cooking together can become a cherished tradition that teens carry into adulthood. When you cook together, you're making more than just a meal; you're making memories that will last a lifetime. It's those moments of laughter, the occasional kitchen mishaps, and the joy of creating something together that your teens will remember. Cooking together also teaches kids responsibility and gratitude. They learn that food doesn’t just miraculously appear on the dinner table. It takes effort, planning, and teamwork. This understanding helps them appreciate the food they eat and the effort that goes into preparing it. It also instills a sense of responsibility as they take on tasks in the kitchen, whether it’s chopping...
