Erica Domesek, the DIY expert behind the lifestyle brand @psimadethis, has become well-known for her easy and inexpensive kid-friendly crafts that are not only fun but also educational (like her cardboard pizza oven + adorable piggy banks).
Here, she shares an easy “veggie garden” with edible soil from her new book, “P.S. We Made This.” What a clever way to get your kids to eat vegetables!
“It’s going to give you a whole new meaning of ‘from farm to table,’” she says.
What You Need
-Terra-Cotta Pot
-Coffee Filter or Wax Paper
-Blender
-Dark-Colored Bread (Pumpernickel is ideal)
-Asparagus
-Radishes
-Carrots
-Dip
How to Make “Soil”
1. In a blender, blend dark-colored bread slices to make bread crumb “soil.”
How to Make Veggie Garden
1. Line a terra-cotta pot with a coffee filter or wax paper.
2. “Plant” fresh and clean vegetables directly into the “soil” and pair with a yummy dip on the side.
Need ideas for dips? Try Rach’s Basic Hummus, Richard Blais’ Slow-Cooker Queso, and Kevin Curry’s Chipotle Cashew Dip.
Overall, Erica says cooking with kids teaches them so many life lessons.
“It gives them a lot of confidence and empowers them to eat healthier too, which I know we’re all looking to do with our kids.”
