Create Your Own Food Taste Test

May 16, 2020
-
Posted by Lauren Rodych-Eberle

This is a fun activity to do for a date night, or with kids, or just with yourself. Think of a food you like to eat multiple different ways! Instantly I think of hot dogs, tacos, pizza, pasta, breakfast bowls, sandwiches, toast, yogurt parfaits. Come up with a list to make them 3 or 4 different ways, and then do a taste test!! Get everyone to write down their favourites in order to share. And then, just eat and enjoy.

Ways to Eat Hot Dogs

  • With Mustard, Ketchup, Relish
  • As a Cheese Dog
  • Topped with Pulled Pork
  • Topped with Chili
  • Served with Mac & Cheese
  • With Peanut Butter & Jelly
  • Topped with Your Favourite Cereal

Ways to Eat Hamburgers

  • Change up the meat – beef, turkey, chicken
  • Make it vegetarian – sweet potato, black bean
  • Change up the toppings – different veggies or condiments

Ways to Eat Tacos

  • Pulled Pork
  • Chicken
  • Beef
  • Avocado
  • Fish
  • Cauliflower
  • Keep the protein the same, and change the toppings

Ways to Eat Pizza

  • Change up the sauce – tomato, BBQ, pesto, alfredo
  • Change up the toppings – meat lovers, veggie lovers, with a twist like figs & prosciutto
  • Change up the cheese – cheddar, mozzarella, feta

Ways to Eat Pasta

  • Change the actual pasta – spaghetti, penne, gnocchi
  • Change the sauce – bolognese, alfredo, vodka

Ways to Eat Breakfast Bowls (also try oatmeal bowls)

  • Keep the base the same, and change the style of egg – sunny-side up, scrambled, poached
  • Keep the eggs the same, and change the base – sweet potatoes, white potato hash, kale
  • Keep the eggs and the base the same, and change up the rest – peppers & onions, spicy peppers and meat, mushrooms & tomatoes

Ways to Eat Sandwiches and Toast

  • Switch up the toppings – veggies, spreads
  • Switch up the protein – meat, eggs

Ways to Eat Yogurt Parfaits

  • Try different yogurts
  • Try different granolas
  • Top with all different things – fruit, chocolate, candy!

Happy Food Experimenting!

ABOUT ME
I’m Lauren and I have a deep passion for music, food, the outdoors, and travel. I love random questions and fun facts, and am always searching for better ways to bring wellness and health into my life. I am the owner of Miss Lauren’s Music Studio, where I teach voice, piano, ukulele, and preschool music classes – via Skype and within Calgary. I am a Senior Consultant for Pampered Chef, which has inspired me over the years to write two cookbooks (plus one mini ebook cookbook), that have food preparation made easy in the forefront.

While taking Conscious Parenting Coaching, I had t While taking Conscious Parenting Coaching, I had to be coached as well, and a lot of my takeaways were affirmations that I will now continue to say to myself constantly. 

“Just because I can, doesn’t mean I should.” “It’s okay to let go.” “Investment in help benefits the whole family system.” Always a work in progress. 

Do you have an affirmation you’re whispering in your own ear lately?!

With D coming up on starting solids, I’m going down memory lane. My midwife said something that gave me all the feels…how incredible it is that every cell of little Deacon has come from me, from growing him to nourishing him with my milk. Knowing he’s going to start being nourished with other food makes me want to pause time, but also…I love this food journey, as you know…since it brought me #collinskitchencookbook and I think it may be even more fun this time around since Collins is already planning out Deacon’s menu!!

Is there anything you want me to talk about baby-led weaning wise as we go about our food journey?! And if not, just tell me what food you think D should try ASAP!!

I’ve been extra in love with affirmations lately, and if this is one you need, read that again…🤍

If you asked Jordan his biggest pet peeve about me, he would say that I never know where my keys or phone are when we are leaving the house. [And yes, I know there are a thousand good ways to solve this problem, but yet here we are…]

I would guess that his runner up is when I’m driving, I will take the way that takes longer if I like the route better…💁‍♀️

Please tell me what your spouse’s top pet peeve about you would be…entertain me!!

What “feels like” chaos to you?
