Resurrection Rolls

Crescent Rolls
Melted Butter
Large Marshmallows
Cinnamon
Sugar

Oven at 350.

Give each child a triangle of a crescent roll. This represents the cloth that Jesus was wrapped in.

Read Matthew 27:57-61

Give each child a marshmallow. This represents Jesus.
Have the child dip the marshmallow in the melted butter. This represents the oils of Jesus' embalming.
Now dip the buttered marshmallow in the cinnamon sugar mixture. This represents the spices used to anoint the body.
Wrap the coated marshmallow tightly in the crescent roll. (Bring up the sides to completely seal the marshmallow.) This represents wrapping Jesus' body after death.
Place in the over for 10-12 minutes. (This represents the tomb).
Let the rolls cool slightly. When the children open their rolls they will discover Jesus is no longer there-HE IS RISEN!

Vegetarian Potato and Cauliflower Burritos

1 jar of salsa verde (I liked Trader Joes)
1 Tbs oil
1/2 tsp oregano
1 small onion halved and sliced
3 cups cauliflower florets
1 medium Yukon Gold or russet potato cut into 1/4 inch cubes
3 Tbs chopped cilantro
4 8-inch flour tortillas
1 cup cooked brown rice
1 cup shredded cheese

Heat oil in skillet. Saute onion and oregano about 2 minutes. Stir in cauliflower, potato and salsa verde. Cover and simmer 10 minutes. Uncover and simmer 5 minutes more until cauliflower and potato are tender. Stir in cilantro. Divide cauliflower mixture among tortillas. Top with rice and cheese.

Amazing Whole Wheat Cocolate Chip Cookies

3 cups whole wheat flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 sticks butter (if cold cut into 1/2 inch pieces)
1 cup dark brown sugar
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
2 tsp vanilla extract
8oz chocolate, cut into chunks

Oven at 350. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper.

Sift dry ingredients together. In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars together until thoroughly blended, about 2 minutes. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing each one until it's incorporated. Mix in vanilla. Add in flour mixture and blend on low speed until barely combined about 30 seconds. Add chocolate chips. Mix on low speed until chocolate is evenly combined. Scoop mounds of dough (about 3 Tbs each) onto the cookie sheet, 3 inches apart about 6 to a sheet. Bake cookies for 16-20 minutes until evenly darker brown.
