Jonah Cooking Ideas

 

Posted by Sue


A really fun idea we used in Deb's Diner for our Jonah rotation was to use a pre-baked pizza shell and cut it to resemble a fish. (Cut wedges out to make a tail) Then spread on ready made sauce. We then used a clean paper punch to punch out holes in pepperoni slices for eyes and mouth and added them to the pizza. We had "Jonahs" in the belly of the whale.

You could also say that Jonah "turned over" control to God instead of running away.
We typically have lots of kids, so instead of making turnovers, we made turnover cookies. They're like turnovers, but with less of a flaky pastry feel and much smaller. Google turnover-cookies for lots of different recipes.

We just did a Jonah's Belly Of the Whale Feast. After talking to the kids about how uncomfortable, smelly and generally nasty 3 days in the belly of a fish would be, I had them make a "feast" for the congregation of things Jonah might have had to "eat".

 

We did Jelly fish salad of small molds of blue jello with blueberries, 3 different plankten dips, (salsa, french onion and a blueberry & cream cheese to compliment the jelly fish), dead fish crackers, seaweed (spinach) salad, fish bones of pretzel sticks, chum salad (tuna) and tummy juice tea. The kids made the foods and labeled everything and the congregation was blown away at after church coffee hour! It was a whale of a good time! (oops....sorry!)
