Professional Review:

For the legions of harried moms who have tossed in the dishtowel on cooking healthy meals (or any meals!), the easiest-ever guide for bringing super nutrition back to the kitchen.

Getting dinner on the table night after night can be a challenge. So it’s no surprise that busy moms often rely on fast food, takeout, and convenience meals like macaroni & cheese, chicken nuggets, and fries. The kids love it but the drawback is that little twinge of guilt moms feel every time they feed their family another not-so-healthy meal. At the end of the day, many children end up with a poor diet high in sugar, saturated fat, and calories … a major factor in the rising rates of obesity.

Finally, here are realistic guidelines designed to give families a healthy meal makeover.
The Moms lay out a 5-Step Meal Makeover Plan, explaining how to market good nutrition to kids, establish food rules, and make life easier in the kitchen.
In The Best of the Bunch chapter they reveal which brands of kid convenience foods–hot dogs, frozen pizza, and more–are the best tasting and most nutritious ones out there.
The Moms show how to stock a healthy pantry and whip up delicious anytime meals using pantry staples.
They even serve up 120 reworked recipes for family favorites such as Fast-as-Boxed Macaroni & Cheese, Squishy Squash Lasagna, Cheesy Broccoli Soup, Sweet Potato Fries, and Chocolate Pudding with Toppers.

   Summary: I LOVE this book !
I refer to this book constantly. I love that it has "better" versions of typical toddler food. I've used the substitutions for macaroni and cheese (the boxed variety) and my kids gobble it up like there's no difference. I am glad to be feeding them something they will actually eat that's more healthy than it could have been.

   Summary: Love it!
We got this cookbook after a friend recommended it and we love it. The recipes are easy and simple and really good. Plus I feel good feeding my family the meals in this book; the little changes on familiar recipes to make them more healthy is so great. It's a great book and I highly recommend it!

   Summary: We love this book!
What is not to love about this book?! It is about realistic ways to bring healthier food to the table. How to make it better or just even to buy it better. It is not preach-y or too overwhelming. Better still, my entire family loves all the recipes we have tried. I recommend this book constantly and have given it as a gift many times.

   Summary: Disappointed
Very disappointed in this book. I returned it. Simplistic with very little information I wanted.
