Kids’ plate: Roast Chicken Dinner
On the plate: Plain chicken pieces with soft acorn squash, tender Brussels sprouts and green beans, before the lemon zest is added.
Make it a game: Make a little forest on the plate: squash hills, Brussels sprout trees and green bean paths. Choose where the chicken visits first.
Set it aside at step 4, before the grown-ups’ sauce or spice goes on.
