Review:

If you're the parent of a picky eater, you need this book!

Author Missy Chase Lapine, the former publisher of Eating Well Magazine, has come up with a truly innovative kid friendly recipes that are healthy too.

Missy has a bag of tricks to rival most magicians, only her tricks will have your kids looking forward to eating things like cauliflower, spinach, beans, broccoli, carrots, tofu and even sardines! In most cases, these healthy super foods are hidden in such a way that kids (and even picky adults) will never know the difference. For instance cauliflower hidden in macaroni and cheese, blueberries camouflaged in cupcakes and spaghetti and meatballs playing host to eight (count them) different vegetables.

Most of the recipes are quick and easy to prepare - even for busy moms and dads with extremely hectic schedules. There are even 5 minute quick fixes for Jello and other kid friendly mixes. The Make Ahead Chapter allows you to always have healthy Sneaky Chef components on hand - such as fruit and vegetable purees (see sample recipes) and whole grain flour and breading mixes.

Instructional chapters will arm you with important information to feed your family healthy wholesome foods, such as the 12 most important foods to buy organic and the twelve most contaminated foods, important foods to stock your pantry with, and strategic ways to introduce your family o healthy eating - slowly and in moderation.

This is one of the best everyday family cookbooks we've seen in years. Highly recommended.
