We wanted to let you know that the PFA is producing the first ever Sandygate Cookbook!
Featuring family-favourite recipes from the whole school community - children, parents and staff - we hope to encourage children to get involved with cooking meals at home and to foster a love of food and healthy eating.
Have you got a recipe that you and your family love? Maybe "Nana's banana bread", "Mum's spaghetti bolognese", "The best chocolate cake ever" or "Jasper's juicy jaffa cakes"? If you do and you're happy to share it, we would love to include it in the book. When we have all the different recipes, we will collate them and put them into the CookBook. We would love a selection of both family favourites and kid-friendly recipes that the children could have a go at themselves (with some help of course).
They will then be available to purchase and be a wonderful keepsake.
Our headings at the moment:
- Starters, Soups and Salads
- Vegetarian and Vegan
- Main Dishes
- Breads, Cakes and Biscuits
- Desserts
- Miscellaneous
- Lockdown Loves
Once you have chosen your favourite, well-loved recipe, please type out the recipe in a word document (following the guidelines below) and email it to:- marlowcofepfa@gmail.com. Each recipe should include:
- Name of your child and class they are in e.g. "Freya Snell - Butterfly Class"
- Name of the recipe
- List the ingredients (please could quantities be in metric measurements if possible)
- Simple, easy-to-follow instructions
PLEASE NOTE - the recipes must be your own and not from a cook book you own already (but it is ok to use an original recipe where you have made at least 3/4 changes to it - i.e. added your own signature to it).
We will be asking for illustrations for the book at a later date so if your child would like to do an accompanying picture then let us know and we will take that into consideration with the formatting and layout. We will then be in touch when we know with further details of how these can be sent to us as well.
The deadline for emailing the recipes back to us is FRIDAY 29th JANUARY.
We are really looking forward to reading all your delicious recipes!
