I have an extra (brand new) copy of Deceptively Delicious: Simple Secrets to Get Your Kids Eating Good Food.
This book has generated some controversy--so read it and decide for yourself!
Fans claim that this is the way to get picky eaters to enjoy nutritious foods. Detractors are concerned about everything from the idea of tricking your kids to the time-intensive puree preparation.
Mixing veggies and fruits in with other foods is nothing new--my grandmother used to mash spinach into my mom's potatoes. And, although I'm blessed with a little one who is the opposite of picky, I'll sometimes put some veggies into her mac and cheese just to add additional vitamins. And you don't have to actually be deceptive about it if you aren't comfortable with the idea--the recipes still give you ideas about possible combinations to try.
If you are interested in winning a copy from me:
- Just leave me a comment with your kiddo's favorite food (or if you don't have a kid yet, let me know yours) by 11:59 PM, Friday April 25th.
