Here's a cute story from reader Lauran King about a young Recitopian:

For lunch today, I fried bacon and onions and added it to eggs and
cheese, threw it in the oven and baked it. My 3-year-old grandson
Parker "checked" the eggs with me about half way through. As soon as
I pulled the baking dish out, Parker stated, "Oh, those are my
favorite eggs, I just LOVE them." He then added, "I've never had eggs
like that before."

This elegant but simple dish can also be made with raisins, dried
peaches, or chopped dates.

Curried Rice with Apricots

4 cups (1 L) chicken broth or water
2 cups (500 ml) rice
1/2 cup (125 ml) dried apricots, chopped
2 tsp (10 ml) curry powder

Bring the chicken broth or water to a boil in a saucepan over moderate
heat. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Reduce the heat to the lowest
setting and simmer tightly covered for 20 minutes - do not remove the
lid. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. Serves 4 to 6.
