Fabulous!

This is a healthy cookbook that kids will actually eat from! They have lots of practical advice and you don't need fancy techniques or equipment. We've been eating from this cookbook every night and it's gotten us to try some healthy foods and grains we would never have eaten before. We're cookbook addicts and this is one of the best.

Good Information

This book is the hot knife slicing through the butter of confusion about nutrition. It tells you straight what is known and not known about nutrition and health at this time and makes recommendations based on the most current research. For example, I didn't know that current research has shown that margarine may be worse for you then butter. Read the book and it will tell you why. There is also great advice about how to promote healthy eating and lifestyle for the whole family, and why it is so important to start when your kids are younger. But if they are older like mine patience may still pay off. I was happy to find out that we weren't doing too bad in some areas. The only problem with this book is the recipes. If you read the recipes it's almost like they don't take their own advice, for one. There seem to be a high portion of beef and potatoe recipes compared to the small amount of space devoted to recipes. And if you already have a lot of cookbooks there is nothing new and exciting here. I already have many many recipes for pizza, chicken nuggets, fish sticks, peanut noodles... etc, and actually some of mine are healthier than theirs if I am understanding their advice right. Buy this book for the advice, and another good book for healthy recipes and you are all set to change the way your family eats.
