Hi - love your Paragraph of the week concept!
Here is one to add if you think it will work. This would fall under the multiple paragraph portion. Have each student choose a favorite family recipe. Have them construct a good introduction paragraph about which recipe and why. The three supporting paragraphs is the how to and the conclusion paragraph is the outcome. Then for fun, they can bring in a sample of that recipe and a copy of the recipe, or put together a Paragraph Recipe Packet, with eveyone's contributions.
