P2/3 Rainbow Salad

P2/3 were in the Learning Kitchen this week and enjoyed working with the colourful vegetables that can be used in a salad.  They used a cutting technique called ‘the claw’ to help them cut their vegetables safely.  As well as learning to cut safely, this experience gave children the opportunity to taste the different vegetables.  To make this fun, each child made their own colourful, rainbow salad face and then with a little mayo, they started to crunch away.  If you like eating nachos and dipping them into salsa, why don’t you add a few crunchy vegetables to dip?
