michellem 2 years, 2 months ago said: A must have This was a cookbook featured on Oprahs show. Its called"Deceptively Delicious" by Jessica Seinfeld(Jerry Seinfeld's wife) It is $ 24.95 and worth every penny.
Its dedicated to getting kids to eating healthier and eating vegetables. Every recipe has a hidden vegatable puree in it(from pancakes to mac and cheese and everything in between) all the recipes are geared for what kids love(&what us junk food junkies crave) but much healthier and all recipes are low fat. They showed kids on Oprah today trying vegies and acting like they would die because of the taste. Then they tried several items from her cookbook and they loved them. They were surprised when they found out veggies wee hiding in them. She even as chicken nuggets with brocolli puree hidden in them. Every recipe has a full page color picture of the tiem and easy to follow instructions
