Books : Deceptively Delicious: Simple Secrets to Get Your Kids Eating Good Food
Rating: 
- It's o.k. but...
This book is o.k., but it's not something that most of us haven't done in one fashion or another for a long time. I don't think it was worth the purchase price, over-all, except for the hints that some baked items need to be eaten cold due to leftover verggie tastes. For myself, I would rather purchase frozen vergetables and puree them than to fill up my freezer with things that I've spent hours on that have no more nutritional value than the frozen veggies themselves.

- I liked the book
I bought 2 of these cook books. One for myself and the other was a gift. The person who got it as a gift loved it along with myself. The peanut butter and jelly muffins were so soft and yummy. Some of the other comments said they only tried 1 recipe and will not make any more. You have to try more than one. So every other cookbook you have purchased you have tried and liked everything? There will always be something that someone does not like.

I got this as a gift from my mother-in-law. My hubby is very picky whereas my kids will eat most anything once you get them focused, especially veggies, they love them. My thought is that you can always get more into your diet. We eat veggies with our meals as is, but this is a way to add a little more nutrition. I notice that most of the recipes where you use an egg-batter uses the veggies as a base instead of typical milk and egg and it actually makes the breading stick better...go figure! I know that vitamins and minerals have broken down more than if you eat them fresh and there a few negative bloggers out here ripping on that fact, but think of it like I do: Every little bit helps and it was a little more that is consumed had you cooked it all the traditional way. There has only been one recipe out of the whole thing that I couldn't get to work, but I may have done it wrong since it was my first shot at the whole cookbook. I will try it again. My kids love the cookies with chickpeas in them and they love all the chicken recipes so far. The best part...my hubby loves it all and had no clue that I was doing it. He caught wind of the whole thing from my mom, and you know what...now he thinks its great! I have found myself experimenting on my own with similar things. I have also looked at the "Sneaky Chef" I think this is more kid friendly fare, but it too has some great recipes. Bonus: I have lost 4 pounds, feel more full after meals, and am very excited that I can get my 30-year-old child to eat sweet potatoes. I know...you don't have to tell me...he is a terrible example for the kids. Trust me, this has been discussed at great length for years.
Enjoy!

The entire book is just full of everyday recipes that add a puree of either carrot, squash, or cauliflower....not worth paying for. I wish I could go back in time and save the $ I spent on this book.
Rating: - Great Ideas, working great for me.
I love the book, very easy to follow and so far it is helping. Although my daughter will not eat anything green so some ideas still would not work.
