Editorial Review:
Parents will do almost anything to get their kids to eat healthier, but unfortunately, they’ve found that begging, pleading, threatening, and bribing don’t work. With their patience wearing thin, parents will “give in” for the sake of family peace, and reach for “kiddie” favorites-often nutritionally inferior choices such as fried fish sticks, mac n’ cheese, Pop-sicles, and cookies. Missy Chase Lapine, former publisher of Eating Well magazine, faced the same challenges with her two young daughters, and she sought a solution. Now in The Sneaky Chef, Lapine presents over 75 recipes that ingeniously disguise the most important superfoods inside kids’ favorite meals. With the addition of a few simple make-ahead purees or clever replacements, (some may surprise you!) parents can pack more fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants in their kids’ foods. Examples of “Sneaky” recipes include: No Harm Chicken Parm Power Pizza Incognito Burritos Guerilla Grilled Cheese Brainy Brownies Health-by-Chocolate Cookies Quick fixes for Jell-O(R)

Rating: - Good Book
I know a lot about whole foods and was a little suspicious about this book but it gave me some new info. and some great, inspiring ideas for my 2 year old!
Rating: - WHAT THEY DON'T KNOW WON'T HURT THEM
Because kids rarely like vegetables and healthy foods, this book fills an important need. The main useful emphasis of the book is the idea of sneaking pureed vegetables into kid-friendly dishes. In addition to sneaking in the vegetables, the recipes take some of the unhealthy ingredients out. The book offers traditional recipes with purees or healthier replacements that add fiber, vitamins, and antioxidants to meals. The book is easy to read and presents a practical guide for parents.
