So, this fun little cooking school, Spoon and Spatula, opened up near my house and my girls just finished their first ‘camp’ there… pizza camp!  Each day of the week, the classes revolved around pizza.  The first day was bubble pizza, then fruit pizza, calzones, pizza wantons, and fried mozzarella sticks.  The girls LOVED it.  So much so, that we’re putting together a weekly home-school class for all my kids to attend.  I’m way excited.  I’ve always wanted a personal chef.  Maybe one of these days I’ll have six of them!  Ha, my spell-check is telling me that ‘calzones’ should be ‘lazy bones.’  Ha, well you definitely feel that way after eating them!

The girls have been anxious to make some of their newly-learned recipes for the family.  So, this past Sunday, I did my own little cooking class with the kids.  They taught me how to make their Fried Mozzarella Sticks from the Spoon and Spatula class, and I taught them how to make homemade marinara for spaghetti, Jana’s Awesome Breadsticks, and Cherries and Cream Dessert Squares.  Mmmm!  It was a ‘free day’ (from the diet) to remember.

So, these Fried Mozzarella Sticks are from the girls… easy to make (even for kids!) and delicious.
