Not bad - just take a day to cook and puree all the veggies and you are good to go!

I bought this book and made a few meals for my 4 and 2 year old, I thought they were ok but the kids wouldn't eat them. Now the book is just sitting on the book shelf collecting dust, guess I'll have to find another way to get them to eat veggies.........

I tried about six recipes in here, but only liked one of them. The other ones I tried were not very tasty to me and my kids, but my husband thought they were okay.

I read through this book when it first came out, as I have been trying to trick my kids to eat healthy for a while. Like most kids, they are picky eaters, so I can't follow the recipes exactly, but the techniques are great. I have pureed some of the veggies as soups before, but once I read the book, I expanded to doing it everywhere, in milk shakes, frozen desserts, soups, stews, sauces. My extra trick is start with little amounts and then adjust up everytime you make it, they will be more like to get used to the taste gradually. If you would believe it, I did that with Greens Powder (for Adults of course), adding it to fruit milk shakes. I added a little at a time and blended in lots of frozen blueberries and bananas to cover the green color and taste.

My kids are elementary school age, and if you have ones that age, your challenge would extend beyond eating healthy at home. It is eating healthy on the road, at school, and at restaurants. That's why I have been augmenting eating healthy at home with shopping for healthy products off-the-shelf. You can find many of my findings on Foodacity's web site. Please don't to contribute your own favorites as well for others to benefit from and enjoy.

This is an excellent cookbook and I'm so glad that I bought it for my daughter. I know that children can be picky eaters and I wanted her children to eat tasty AND nutritious food.

I compared this cookbook with a very similar cookbook at my local grocery store. There was no comparison. The layout of this cookbook is easy to follow. It's filled with healthy and delicious recipes with many tips and hints. It even has tips on how she organizes, labels and stores her healthy "additives" in her freezer. Her ideas are great and many are ideas I never thought of.

Another great thing about this cookbook is the fact that the book stays open to the page you open it to, not leaving you scrambling to find the page you were just at - unlike the other cookbook I examined.

I'm so glad I saw the Oprah program that introduced me to this very helpful book and my daughter is delighted with it. It would make a great gift for anyone with children.
