After School Snacks

Y'all, I'm joined by Kent and Doody from Disney Channel's Shake It Up

Shake it up. We're going to shake it up in the kitchen. And it's all about after-school snacks

First up, it's my delicious vegetarian pizza. I wish I would come home to these

Then I'm frying up fresh grouper fingers with a homespun tartar sauce

Mmm. And for a tasty treat, sweet and chewy oatmeal raisin cookies

And they're looking fine. And finally, I'm mixing us up some Lady and Sons Lemonade

That is the best lemonade by far that I've ever tasted in my life

So stick around, because you never know what's going to happen when two crazy kids get together. Whoa

Your turn. I love how cooking brings people together

Because the family's important to me Well, Paula's passion for food Keeps people in a happy mood

Everything's better with butter Paula Dima like any other Wanna live off the borderline

You're adorable! He's so cute, so sweet

You know, he's just adorable. I've always looked up to Paula, and so I just always wanted to be able to go and tell her that in person

and actually be able to cook with her. I am thrilled that you're here

You're adorable. Thank you. And you're on Disney, right? Yes, Disney Channel

Shake it up. Shake it up. Shake it up. And we're going to shake it up in the kitchen

Yes, we are. Yes. I'm shaking already. Up first, I want to show you how to make some delicious oatmeal raisin cookies

I'm going to beat up some butter and eggs together. Two sticks of butter and a couple of eggs

And while I'm doing this, if you'd measure out my dry ingredients

It's one and a half cups of all-purpose flour, a teaspoon of salt, a teaspoon of bacon soda, a teaspoon of cinnamon

So you can just put all that in here, Kenton. Okay. You know, bacon is definitely a formula

It is. It is. You know, when I was five, I believe, is when I really got into baking

And so that's where I actually learned fractions and everything else. So when I went to school, I was already basically with fifth grade math

You know, this is a great source of information for children. Teaches them a lot about math, doesn't it

And chemistry. So next year in science, it's going to be a piece of cake

You know, children love being in the kitchen. It's a wonderful place to build memories for them

A teaspoon of salt, a teaspoon of cinnamon, and I've had your raisins plumping over there

in just a little bit of water, Kenton. Okay. And I've got a collard over there

You can just drain those right in there. Whoops! Sounds great. I was looking at you

I thought I was fixing to have an accident. All right. I'm going to add a cup of brown sugar

and I'm going to add a half a cup, Kenton, of just granulated sugar

Now we're going to cream all this up real good, and then we're going to add your dry ingredients to it

That sounds good to me. Kenton, I couldn't believe when they told me that it was your dream to come in here in the kitchen and cook with me

It was. Well, you know, she's just always had such a great relationship with her sons

and you can tell that family's really important to her, and it's the same in my household

But, you know, it comes down to that very identical thing, and that's family

You never outgrow that. This looks good and cream, and I've added the vanilla

All right, now I'm just going to take our dry ingredients. and I'm just going to beat them in

and if you'd measure us out two cups of oats and I'm going to let you do that

since you're so big and so strong. Why, thank you. Do you get a lot of fan mail

Oh, I know you do. My sisters love it because we went to

the mall near our house. There's this bungee jump thing inside the mall

I gave one to my grandson, Jack. It's in our backyard. You wanna go over there

That would be great, we should. We will go. All right. We will go and you will jump

Oh, I'm definitely getting Paul on the bungee. There's no trying, it's definite

But I can tell you right now, it ain't a pretty sight. We're gonna bungee

We're doing like the jumps and we get off and these girls come over and they go, are you a couther

They're like screaming and my sisters are laughing hysterically. A girl asks them, so what's it like being Kenton's sisters

And they're like, he's my brother. He's just as annoying as yours. Dump those raisins in here, baby

You got it. All right grab those nuts darling You got it How much do you want to dump Oh I wouldn be opposed to like a cup to start with All right let do it

I love, I love, love, love, love, love nuts in my cookies

Especially pecans. Perfect. There we go. Well, you know, I thought she would be nice, and she was nicer

That was my very first impression. I feel like I'm a member of family, and I think it's ditto for her

One thing that's so important about baking cookies, it's important that they're all the same size

Yes. Because you want them to finish off baking at the same time

Okay. So we want to make sure that we're scooping the same level out

So how about like that? That sounds good. Just filling it in scoop. Perfect

We make a great team. We do. We need to do this more often. Let's get these in the oven

Okay. Let's put them in this oven. All righty. 350 for 10 to 12 minutes

Of course. Coming up, this is over-the-moon beautiful. Thank you. And later, we're going outside to jump

Oh, God, it won't fit! What kid doesn't love pizza

Well, I love pizza, so I don't know who doesn't. That's right. So I thought I would make you some pizza

We're going to have us a hearty vegetable pizza. Well, honey, get our crust out of the oven for us

And I'm going to start slicing up our veggies. I'm just using a store-bought dough that I rolled out and pre-baked

And I'm going to saute off our veggies. Oh, that sounds delicious

You know pizza, it cooks quickly. It does, it does. So we don't want just some raw vegetables sitting up there for you

So if you would take your grater and come down here to the fridge

get out the Parmesan and the mozzarella. Okay. That's it. And you just grate us some of those

and I've got the onion, squash, zucchinis. Be as great as I know you are

That was a good one, wasn't it? That was a really good one

You're really great. It's great because I've gotten to learn from her, gotten tips

I think it's going to show kids my age that you can have fun in the kitchen

as well as, you know, parents out there, you can have fun with your kids in the kitchen

Doesn't it smell good? There's nothing like onions and garlic cooking in the kitchen

You're speaking my language. Yes. All right, I'm going to move that back until I get these yellow summer squash and zucchini

Sounds good. I'm gonna slice this thin, Kenton Okay I'm ready to get this over with, though

Because I want to get you on the jumper I can't wait

Alright, this squash is looking good

Alright, now I'm ready to put this back on the fire now Okay

Just great. Just great. All righty. I've got us some Roma tomatoes

Mm. And, you know, I don't think I'm going to put those in our skillet

How am I doing with this mozzarella here? You're doing... Great. Great. Would you rather have a sun-dried tomato or would you rather have a ranch dressing base

Maybe ranch since it's all this vegetable. Okay. I completely forgot about having a marinara sauce ready

I'm going to work us up something, kitten. Don't you worry about it

I'm excited now. All right. I got some cream cheese here. I found some sour cream

I've got a bottle dressing. It was amazing to just watch her, like, just pull everything together and just suddenly

whip it right up. You know, that just sort of shows her genius with cooking. Just like, boom, you're done

I have made lots of afternoon snacks over the years, honey, because my two boys would come in from school just starved

So here comes that seasoning. Now we've got a half a cup of ranch dressing

an eight-ounce package of cream cheese, and about a half a cup of sour cream

Kenton, walk that salt and pepper down to me, please. All righty

I'm going to try to cream this up. This is expertise right here

I hope it's edible. Alrighty. So, what we're gonna do is take our crust

and we're gonna put our marinara on it. Marinara holla. Yes

Alright. That looks good. We just gonna have a white marinara instead of a red I maybe taught him that there more than one way to skin a cat You know you can come up with some pretty good things in the kitchen quite by accident

All right, you want to help me? I would love to. Do the pizza

I'm just going to kind of distribute. Beautiful, beautiful. And let's get all that onion

All right, just keep piling it on, honey. Okay. We're going to have us a hearty vegetable pizza

Oh, yeah. My stomach's growling. Oh, mine's been growling since the minute you started sautéing the vegetables

I'm sorry. It just looks so good. I'm going to put our basil on

Ooh, basil. Do you love basil? Mm-hmm. Beautiful. Is it great? It's great

Yum, yum. Okey-dokey. Oh, that looks delicious. So I'd say 450. 450

Eight minutes. Eight minutes. Put it in, baby All righty Coming up

Look at our marinara Oh, look at it running out You love fish fingers

Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm To the moon, kitten Whoa! Whoa! All right, pizza

Yes, this is the time of truth. Well, let's see. Take him out

Looks good so far. Yeah. Fabulous. You hold that pan and I'll kind of coach him onto the..

That was skill right there. Wasn't that skill? That was skill. All right, you want to cut or you want me to cut

Ladies first. Okey-doke. Look. Look at our marinara. Oh, look at it running out

Juicy. Yes, it's so juicy. See, I mean, I wish I would come home to these when I was in elementary school

Well, honey, if you lived with Granny Paula, you could. So when do you want to move in

Next week? How's next week? I'll have your room ready. I'm going to have to let it cool a minute, though

It's really good. Please don't burn your mouth. I'm going to sit mine right here while it cools

I thought that another great afternoon snack for you would be like fish fingers

Mmm. Do you love group of fingers? Oh, yes, I do. All right, well, that's what I'm going to fix for you, baby

That's going to be great. If you would, put a cup and a half of flour

Okay. Wow. It's good. Experimenting in the kitchen

Really good. And I'm going to come over here and I'm going to eyeball just some buttermilk in here

Okay. We're going to go from dry to wet to dry. Okay

Or from dry to wet to pizza. All right. I got us some nice, beautiful grouper filets, and I'm just going to cut this in strips

We want one and a half? Yeah, one and a half a deal, half of mustard, a third of a cup of cornstarch, and a teaspoon of salt

While you're doing that, I'm just going to give my hands a quick wash

I am going to be the most envious old lady in Savannah, Georgia

Maybe Georgia, maybe the country. Why so? Because when they find out I was with you, a hot teen throb

Don't you think he's a teen heartthrob? I can just hear all the young girls here in Savannah

seeing him and just squealing and screaming. All right, so how much of this

Oh, I'm sorry, a third of a cup. All right. All right, I'm going to put just a little salt on this fish

Because to me, one of the secrets to good fish is it's got to be salty enough

Mm-hmm. All right, now I've got our deep fryer. or you're going to get to play in my deep fryer

Yes! Come on up here. Okay. All right, so we're going to do..

You know what? Let's do it this way. All righty. All right, so we'll do it dry, wet, and then dry again

You and I need to change jobs, because don't you want to be the one to drop it in the fryer

Yes! I'm just going to go, okay, Mom, here's the deal. We're going to cut a hole in the island in our kitchen

and we're going to put a deep fryer in there. I think you're going to enjoy it, and she'll just be like, as long as I get to eat

And probably fry them for three or four minutes. And once you drop them, you can kind of just shake your basket, you know, to make sure they're moving

Oh, of course. So shake it like this. Shake it like that, baby

Shake it up. All right. I making this tartar sauce so quickly You know it seems like I didn do a whole bunch of planning today but you know that the way sometimes things turn out best

I'm starting with about a half a cup of grated onion. I'm using some dill relish

Okay. Some mayonnaise. The secret to good tartar sauce is you want mainly pickles and onions

Okay. You know, you don't want a whole bunch of mayonnaise. Look, that's a perfect consistency right there

All right. And you see how simple it was? Chop it right up

A little salt. A little pepper. Okay, okay. And I'm ready. Are you

Oh, I'm ready. No, you're not, baby. Your fish are still frying

You got me there. A little lemon juice. Give it a bit more of a sour taste

tart. Tart. Tart. Tart's a good word. I'm gonna just peek. How's that? They're looking good

Shake, shake, shake. Shake, shake, shake, shake. Shake your basket. They look fabulous. Fabulous. Fabulous. Fabulous. Fabulous

Look at that beautiful grouper meat. Mmm. I could eat a ton of these

Mmm, mmm, mmm. I'm a huge fan of fish. That's like the only meat that I eat, and the grouper is..

Well, let's just say I'm gonna get a group together, and we're going to very much enjoy the grouper fish sticks

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm. Mm-hmm. Coming up

I'm going to show you how we make our fresh lemonade. Mm-hmm

And later? Kitten. Go kitten. Woo. Your turn. You think? Mm-hmm. Okay, my dumpling

So we get to do lemonade. Yeah, I'm going to show you how we make our fresh lemonade down at the Lady and Sons

All right. Now, I've got us a simple syrup made over here. What I need for you to do, I had started squeezing the lemons

Okay. But if you'd just help me finish. We're just going to need the juice of 12 lemons

and I'm going to drop a little fresh mint into our pitcher. All right

Now, I like the pulp. As do I. So I'm just going to dump the juice in with our simple syrup and get us up some ice

All right. I'm just going to pour this back into here. So all you have to do now, darling, is pour that over our ice

All righty. And our cookies are out of the oven. And they're looking fine

I love this particular recipe for oatmeal cookies because, you know, we didn't put any bacon powder in it

We just put soda. So look, it's almost like a lace cookie

Ooh. See how thin. Why, thank you. We're going outside to jump

Oh, yeah. But in the meantime. Cheers. Cheers. I've had a ball cooking with you

I've had a ball cooking with you. You know, because you're used to, you know, the very thick cookie, but this was, you know, nice and thin

but it was actually just as chewier, if not more, than normal oatmeal cookies

All of them. I'm watering up. I'm sorry. Mmm. Good ale. I love spending time in the kitchen

I love having people with me in the kitchen. And being there with Paula was just sort of surreal for me

Outside, boy. Woo! I'm gonna buckle you up. To the moon, kid

Whoa! I didn't know the bungee jump was gonna be that. I mean, I was expecting fun, but it was funner

I had a ball with him. You know, technically, I should have a grandchild that age

Johnny was a slow learner. Oh, God, it won't fit! It's like those seatbelts on the airplane

You just pray it's going to meet. Yes! You're doing it! I got her bungee jump

Didn't I tell you that I would get her to bungee jump? and look at her. She did a good bungee jump

Oh! Oh! I did it! Well, let me tell y'all something

Kenton had a ball on that jumper. I don't know about Guinea. But he had a good time

It was a winner. I've had an amazing time. I got to meet my hero

and now I have a new member to the family. Cheers. Cheers
