How can I make these recipes healthier?
+
Consider using whole grain flours, reducing sugar, adding more vegetables or fruits for natural sweetness, and choosing low-fat dairy options. For example, in the Pikachu Pancakes, you could use whole wheat flour and honey instead of sugar.
What can I use if I don’t have food coloring?
+
Natural food colorings like turmeric for yellow (Pikachu), beet juice for red/pink (Jigglypuff), or spinach juice for green can be used to achieve similar effects without synthetic dyes.
Can I prepare these dishes in advance for a party?
+
Absolutely! Many of these recipes can be prepped ahead. For instance, the Pokémon Curry Rice can be made the day before and reheated. Jigglypuff Jelly Pudding sets in the fridge, making it an ideal make-ahead dessert.
