They can be prepared with seasonal vegetables and offer a fun way to get to know new varieties. Thanks to their handy shape, they are ideal for an uncomplicated snack, a cozy weekend brunch or a picnic in the countryside. They are particularly popular because they taste great both hot and cold.

Whether it's grating vegetables, plucking herbs or turning the nuggets in the breadcrumbs - all this creates closeness, promotes self-confidence and makes the little chefs proud of their work. You can also adapt the recipes as you wish and try out new variations again and again.
