Autumn is here and with it we have to renew our fridge and pantry. Seasonal food is here, new recipes and appetizing dishes that you can prepare with the little ones in house.

When cooking with children, it is important to look for recipes that are not only easy to prepare, also provide them with nutritional value. In this way, they will know the properties and benefits of each food and you will have fun cooking together.

We have selected a series of delicious and easy-to-prepare rice dishes. Shall we start?
