momstown Barrie Tots enjoy a Spaghetti dinner thanks to Barilla!

This month our popular Jr. Chef program was sponsored by Barilla!


We had an awesome turn out of moms and tots all ready to cook a fantastic spaghetti dinner with the new Barilla Plus spaghetti!
Barilla Canada’s latest line of pasta, called Barilla PLUS®, is a new multi grain pasta that contains protein, omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids and fibre. Not only does it deliver superior nutritional benefits, but the same great taste you expect from regular pasta, too!




After some back yard playtime and a good hand washing, the kids were ready to get busy creating a yummy meal!

While the water for the spaghetti was boiling we prepped our Caesar salad and garlic bread.



The kids got hands on with the cutting of the lettuce.  Most of them experienced their first time using a real knife.  With some assistance for safety, they did an awesome job!

Once we got all the components prepped and the spaghetti was cooked perfectly, the kid assembled their plates and headed out to the sunshine for a back yard feast!

Watching little ones eat spaghetti is always fun.  It's  messy and nutritious meal and certainly a delicious ones!

Our moms enjoyed their meal as well.  It's always a great dinner when you don't have to cook yourself and the kids all eat until their plates are clean!

With full bellies, the kids enjoyed some more playtime before having an ice cream cone and heading home for a much needed bath and bedtime!  Moms were thrilled to take home a box of spaghetti for a future meal!

Thank you Barilla for this awesome Jr. Chef and allowing us to try your new PLUS pasta!!
