Okay, so the title of this recipe is actually BERT’S <\/em><\/strong> Best Blueberry Oatmeal Bars.\u00c2\u00a0 You know, Bert….as in Bert and Ernie?\u00c2\u00a0 This recipe is from a Sesame Street cookbook called C is for Cooking: Recipes From the Street<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I bought this with dreams of cooking through the entire cookbook with The Littlest Apple, enjoying the experience as we went along and hopefully finding a few new things for him to eat.\u00c2\u00a0 While we DO cook and bake together fairly regularly, this particular experience was less than idyllic, ending with The Littlest Apple crying and in time out.\u00c2\u00a0 Just keeping it real, folks.<\/p>\n

Honestly, this cookbook pleasantly surprised me.\u00c2\u00a0 As expected, there are lots of easy recipes a preschooler can make, and it is certainly geared toward kid favorites (chicken nuggets, mac & cheese, pizza).\u00c2\u00a0 Here are some of the titles: Pancakes with Strawberry Sauce, Cookie Monster’s Homemade Peanut Butter Sandwiches (the recipe is for the peanut butter), Ernie’s Frozen Fun Pops, Zoe’s Rainbow Salad Boats.<\/p>\n

But the first section of the cookbook has recipes from Martha, Emeril, Jamie Oliver, Rachel Ray, and Alton Brown.\u00c2\u00a0 The rest of the cookbook also includes some surprising recipes like Grover’s African-Style Peanut Butter Soup, Bert’s Tutt-Frutti Turkey Salad (which has curry), Grover’s Egg and Sausage Strata and this recipe for Blueberry Oatmeal Bars.\u00c2\u00a0 We all really liked these Bars (though it does seem to be one of the less healthy recipes from the book!).\u00c2\u00a0 Great for breakfast, snack or dessert.<\/p>\n

This cookbook also contains lots of useful information about getting kids involved in the kitchen and making food fun.\u00c2\u00a0 Each recipe includes at least one kid-friendly step, and there are even some Sesame Street stickers at the end.\u00c2\u00a0 This is such a cute cookbook!<\/p>\n
