Do you like Green Eggs and Ham? Would you eat them in the rain or on a train? If so, it’s time to say cheers to 50 years of Dr. Seuss’ Green Eggs and Ham… In the kitchen!  I have loved teaching my children to cook and have had some of the most fun times and memories in the kitchen with them.  I also loved reading Green Eggs and Ham and other great Dr. Seuss books to them.  They remember that so well and it was a time when we could bond as mother and child.  Today, both boys cook great and one is even cooking in a restaurant....he loves it.  I know that they too will read these very same favorite books to their children.  You can win a special edition of the Green Eggs and Ham book celebrating the 50th anniversary of this story.

 

I'm working with Random House Children’s Books and asking YOU to help us celebrate this milestone by reviving the classic story with recipes that give green eggs and ham a 21^st century twist. Celebrity chefs Michael Symon and Melissa d’Arabian, Mitzi Dulan, RD, CSSD and Steamy Kitchen blogger Jaden Hair have created inspired recipes that not only teach kids about nutrition and healthy eating, but teaches them a life skill that can help boost their self esteem.

 

AND it’s a great time to bond as a family!

 

If interested, you could win your very own, “Ham-I-Am Giveaway” and win a Green Eggs and Ham gift set. The giveaway package includes the following:

·               Green Eggs and Ham 50^th Anniversary Edition

·               One set of adult sized Green Eggs and Ham apron/chef hat

·               One set of kid sized Green Eggs and Ham apron/chef hat

I'm asking my followers to submit responses to: “Which recipe did your kids have the most fun making?” or “What’s your family’s favorite way to have fun in the kitchen?” for a chance to win. If you are not a follower, please sign up and make your comment.  You can receive an extra entry for posting to your facebook, posting to your blog, and for posting the giveaway to your twitter account.  Be sure to make a separate posting for each entry and give me the link to the posting please. 

I am also going to add a great recipe for delicious ham salad for you to make with the delicious ham that you could win.  So why not take the time to pass this on to your friends and family and give them a chance to win this great prize?  I will draw a name on February 18th, so you have one week to enter.  Good Luck!
