Anybody have any good ones? + lesson plans would be cool too!

I was going to make some manner of PB&J comment but maybe you could look at salad prep instead.

I've done both sandwiches and triangle-gimbap before. The lesson was about process language and food. I don't have the specifics -- but it was done over 4 lessons. We talked about ordinals and then "first, next, then, after that,...finally" -etc. Then I had them think of a simple recipe they were able to cook. This was grade 5's and 6's pretty much. We worked out their list of ingredients. Their recipes ranged from ramen to fried rice and even a sangyepsal meal - doesn't really matter, as there's steps involved in everything.

Next class we worked through the notes they'd done as homework - on the process of making their meal. We worked on cooking vocabulary like "stir, mix, chop, fry, boil," and so forth. Once we'd edited the recipes, the kids did a mock-up of the poster we made the next lesson.

Some students brought in pictures they'd collected - and we all made posters and then the students presented their work like they were on a cooking show. It was really funny. At the end of that we talked about how to make a sandwich - or gimbap - and what were their favourites. We assigned an ingredient to each of the students to bring in for the next lesson. I dissuaded them from POTATO sandwiches, and we ended up making egg salad, and ham and cheese (both with lettuce, tomato, cucumbers and so forth) - some of the kids were assigned to bring paper plates, cups, and potato chips.

For the gimbap lesson we did tuna-mayo, spicy meat (which I made) kimchi, and chopped veggies. I made a big vat of rice - but you could even get the kids to bring that in. I got a couple of triangle kits from Lotte-Mart. I got some other teachers to bring in a cutting board or soem utensils here and there.

While we were eating what we'd made, I asked the students to describe how they'd made it. It was fun and the kids had a good time!

No bakes cookies only require one of those little stoves they use for camping. I did this cooking lessons during one of my camps. We made no bakes. Ambrosia salad. Grilled ham and cheese sandwiches. The students had to make a recipe book in English. We had pancakes, scrambled eggs one day too. Last day was s'mores where I was pronounced a Goddess!

My school agreed to pay for all the ingredients so I was lucky. They had a blast and the recipe books were cute and of course all in English. Drawings of the food were great! One of my better students did sort of science drawings dissecting each thing we made in pictures...loved it.

It is freaking hard work but fun and the students love making the recipe books and taking them home. I have some pictures if you pm me I will send you some. Now you might think this won't work with older students or boys. These classes were middle school boys and even my 3rd year boys loved it. Boy are universal. "If I do this I get to eat." They even wore aprons. It has to be one of my best winter camps ever.

I used PB&Js during my last summer camp. I've got a .ppt file for it on E-snips:

Some students didn't like the sandwich, some did, and 1 girl even puked from eating it...
