Adventure Cook

the joy of cooking

Adventure Cook™ is a preschool-based cooking class teaching young children to love preparing good food. We bring the cooking class to your young cook’s school. Along with preparing a delicious snack, this course pairs the food with a children’s book related to that week’s theme.

This multiple week course is led and supervised by two adult cooks and is offered as an extracurricular activity through your child’s preschool. Adventure Cook™ will teach kitchen basics including kitchen health and safety, the basics of the food pyramid.

Meridith Taylor and Amy Valentine are avid cooks and mothers of young children based in Austin, Texas. We want to create an environment where children can feel free to explore cooking in an imaginative and safe manner.

Adventure Cook™ is designed to come to your child’s educational environment. By tying all our recipes to a book there is a strong educational component to the program. We also theme our recipes around months and holidays. During December, we bake gingerbread men cookies (made with real minced ginger). In the spring, we make egg salad with homemade mayonnaise .
