The Brazilian Lemonade 
YUM, This recipe is taken straight from Natasha’s Kitchen Blog and it’s a real winner. A simple, clean and zingy alternative to the sugar-laden traditional Lemonade recipes. Get you’re favourite Rocknife out to cut those soft limes once you’ve removed the zest from the outside.
Who doesn’t love a Bagel?! Healthy(ish) and delicious. 5 toppings, each representing an Olympic Ring turns lunchtime into a fun activity to do with your children! Chop, slice and dice with your Rocknife while you provide an informative Q&A session into why there are 5 Olympic Rings. Meanwhile, let the little ones decorate the Olympic-inspired Bagels in whichever way their creative minds take them. You don’t have to stick to the toppings shown here, tailor it to suit your brood.
Brazilian Inspired Corn on the Cob
Wow, This authentic Brazilian recipe is absolutely delicious and really something special. Barbecued corn on the cob with coriander, lime, garlic mayonnaise and parmesan cheese is a healthy addition to any plate. Give the cobs a bit of a kick by adding Jalapeno peppers for those with a slightly more mature palette. Use your Rocknife to cut those bigger cobs down for smaller hands.
