This is a terrific, low-fat and almost zero-carb recipe for fish that is sure to be a crowd-pleaser. A light coating of oil ensures that the fish bakes up crispy and juicy without an oily, bitter taste that frying can cause. The light coating of breadcrumbs and cheese adds a flavor boost and welcome crunch. I like to top it with a simple tomato garnish on the side.

French Yogurt Cake
The Arbosana Extra Virgin Olive Oil would be great with this one!
This recipe is traditionally one of the first things French children learn to make. Since the size of a yogurt container is about ½ cup, you can simply wash the container and let your kids do all of the measuring with the yogurt cup. My daughter thought it was the funniest thing to make a cake using yogurt and the yogurt cup. I've also included traditional measurements if you prefer to use normal measuring scoops.

Brussels sprouts have a serious PR problem. It used to be popular to steam Brussels sprouts, a technique which leaves them somewhat bland and soggy much to the dismay of children everywhere.

Even if your kids still don't like them, it just leaves more for you.

Pixar commissioned commissioned the famous chef Thomas Keller to create an amazing ratatouille recipe for them to 'use' in their film Ratatouille.
