With the yummy recipes and smart ways to get vegetables into your youngsters this is a great book I found the instructions easy to follow and can’t wait to try them. There even good for getting big kids to eat their vegetables. I really enjoyed this book and I’m so glad I got it I want to think the author andnet Galley for my free arc copy please forgive any mistakes as I am blind and dictate my review.
This was a great book for any parent/care giver who struggles getting their. kids (or even themselves) enough fruits and vegetables each day. It is a fact that 9 out of 10 Americans do not eat the recommended amounts of fruits and vegetables each day. So this book helps navigate familiar foods and sneaking in fruits/vegetables. This book comes out at a perfect time as the AHA is now considering writing Prescriptions for Fruits and Vegetables. so this book should help kick start someone's adventure into adding more to their diet.
The only reason not a full five star for me was I believe it would benefit from additional pictures and visuals. Also some of the recipes can be a bit complex, especailly if someone is a new cook.
Over all a great addition to your cookbook collection! THank you NetGalley and Karen Massy for allowing me to review this creative book! These thoughts are all my own!
4 stars

Thank you to the publisher, and Netgalley for an eARC of this book to read and review.
This book made me laugh out loud. The author has had some experience of picky eater for sure. Some of the ideas I had tried before but quite a few were new to me and I intend to use them immediately. I have picky grandchildren and a picky husband so keeping them healthy is often a challenge. I will put this super book to good use.

This is a great way to get vegetables into your kids without guerilla warfare, but it is not a new concept as Jessica Seinfeld wrote a book like this in 2007 and scores of books in the same ilk have been published since. (as the Barenaked Ladies sing “Everything Old is New Again”!)
However, as many libraries (mine included) weed out their collections of older books, it would be a good one to add to our shelves as I can introduce it to a whole new generation of mothers. (I put butternut squash or sweet potatoes in all of our macaroni and cheese and hubby, almost 9 years on, still does not know it is there…he just cannot get over how “creamy” it is!)
I firmly suggest that you batch-cook your vegetables in advance and keep them frozen in smaller amounts (I just use sandwich bags) it is easy to do once you get the hang of it and so much cheaper than using those pouches of vegetables that ubiquitously seem to be hanging out of every toddler’s mouth these days. At least they don’t break like baby food jars used to!)
A great book for a new generation of moms doing the vegetable battle…for me, it was fruit. I still hate fruit to this day!
