Question

Does anyone know anything creative that a 7-year old and I can cook?

Answer 1

sugar, salt, and oil is sure popular.

some time ago, Trader Joes used to sell Cuban Mojito Sauce.

now they've stopped.

i and many others used it on fish, chicken, etc.

it was really good, easy, and cheap.

however, someone suggested to me that if i got some mild green salza and added lime juice, it might come close.

i've not had time to do that, but i will try.

for you and your daughter, it would be quite different from all the other suggestions, and healthy too.

ps, i'd make rice and veges, cook the fish with lots of sauce, and pour the left over sauce on the rice.  it really was good.

1 tsp. vanilla extract  

3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour  

1 tbsp. cinnamon  

1 tsp. ginger  

1 tsp. baking soda  

1/2 tsp. salt

2. In another bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Then add the flour mixture to the butter mixture a little at a time, stirring well each time. Cover the dough and chill for at least 2 hours.
