Product Description
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, Popsicles, 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)

 Good, just needs a few tweaks November 20, 2008

Excellent book! My son won't eat green veggies, so sneaking them into his meatballs is a great alternative. The recipies are very creative, just need to add a few more spices to them to make them come alive.
 Love this book November 15, 2008

Every recipe has been successful with my *VERY* picky eater. He has sensory issues due to Autism, and this book has been really helpful.
Great tips and ideas November 11, 2008

I have tried most of the recipes and most have worked well and been enjoyed by my family. The substitutions and additions used in this book can be used in your cooking across the board. I have taken many of her ideas and implemented them in my "regular" recipes. For example, add orange puree to jar marinara any time that you are using it. I add the purees to everything that I make to increase the vege content in much of what we eat (ie. green puree to hamburgers,etc.). My two year old will always eat this food and sometimes the whole veges that I serve along with it. My husband has not noticed the additions either! The purees are a lot of work, so double the recipes and freeze.
Great Resource November 2, 2008

I love this book! I prefer to take time about once a month and make a ton of purees to freeze. I have learned great recipes from this book as well as easy ways to sneak these purees into every meal I make! I highly recommend this book to any parent that wants to make sure their kids get all their daily nutrients.
