CCF Recipe Collection

The following recipes are from the Chef and Child Foundation Kids Cookbook developed in Memory of Barbara Bell Matuszewski. The recipes were submitted by ACF members from around the country. These recipes are interactive recipes for parents and children to work together to create family dinners with great taste, nutritious substance, and artistic style. Preparing good food doesn’t have to be a lengthy chore. The key is to divide the work into separate tasks that adults and children can perform together. Check back frequently for new recipes and ideas.

Barbara Bell Matuszewski

This collection of recipes, devoted to the betterment of rising awareness of childhood hunger in the United States, would not have become reality were it not for one outstanding individual who is no longer with us. Barbara Bell Matuszewski loved the ACF and its members, and committed the latter part of her life to the primary goal of ACF—to enrich the lives of all culinarians no matter their stations in life. Likewise, she embraced the opportunity to work with the Chef and Child Foundation, again, because of her desire to make the world a better place and to contribute to the legacy that all ACF chefs hold dear. This recipe collection is dedicated to Barbara’s indomitable spirit, her supreme talent, her selfless giving and her always wise council.
