My Project

My students rarely make homemade food and often eat processed food. I want to help teach them to make homemade food. I want to show them that it can be fun and healthy. I found some cool recipes to use with the waffle maker (zucchini pizza and waffle-omelets). I'd also love to teach them how to make homemade sorbet or gelato.

Please help me show how making homemade food can be healthier.

It's a huge advantage knowing all the ingredients that go into the food you eat. I bought an ice cream maker years ago and it just kicked the bucket last year. I also had waffle makers, but another teacher borrowed them to celebrate pi day and accidentally broke them getting off of the elevator.

If possible, please help my students make more homemade items with an ice cream and waffle maker.
