[quote=Anonymous]Get her a good cookbook, and make sure she has good tools she knows how to use. Excellent hot pads were a must for my daughter, too.

Teach her how to cook eggs. From there, you can teach her how to do an omelet. Teach her how to chop veggies to add in.

Pancakes, waffles.

Teach her how to cook noodles. Show her how to take a ramen package, throw in some veggies and maybe an egg, and it's become something dinner-ish. Once she can cook noodles she also has spaghetti and mac and cheese at her fingertips. You can teach her how to make a cheese sauce for stove top mac and cheese, or you can show her how to just cook up the noodles, put some shredded cheddar on top, and done.

Show her how to brown ground beef. From there, you have the potential for meat sauce for the spaghetti as well as sloppy joes.

Tacos. (Canned) beans and rice for burritos.

Beans and rice are great just on there own.

Grilled cheese.
Bacon - you can either introduce her to microwave bacon or show her how to cook it in the oven. My very comfortable in the kitchen child prefers not to cook bacon in a frying pan.

Lasagna is time consuming but pretty easy, and you can make two at a time to freeze one. Quiche, if her family will eat it.

You can teach her to steam veggies.

If you have extra money, perhaps consider getting her a subscription to one of those services that send you ingredients for a complete meal + instructions? [/quote]
