Spinach and Carrot brownie, anyone?
Well, that's what my friend Rusti and I made for our kids; as well as some chicken nuggets that were also rolled in spinach puree... it's all a part of the test kitchen that has been going on at my house! It's "Deceptively Delicious," a cookbook by Jessica Seinfeld! It's about hiding "magical" healthy ingredients in foods for your kids to eat healthy. My kids are all good eaters but one: Jordan. He has always been too picky for most fruits and all vegetables.. so this is my new plan! He ate three slices of banana bread this week; secret ingredient? Cauliflower puree! It was really good! So here's a shout out to all the moms of picky eaters- Deception isn't all about lies!! (It's about being sneaky!!)

Okay, just made a post about this! I love that book! My cousin and I keep calling eachother to say "my kids are slurping hot chocolate and sweet potatoes as fast as possible, it's awesome." We'll have to compare notes!
I gave more than one of these cookbooks as gifts this past Christmas. I thought it sounded fabulous! I'm glad to hear it's working for you.
I'm so happy to be doing it! And to be honest- I like being a little sneaky. haha
