- Awesome wonder
- This is an awesome book that doesn't require purchasing things out of the ordinary. It's no wonder kids eat these recipes, they're great! Sometimes what they don't really know won't hurt them.

- Just A Little Overboard
- Being brought up in a vegetarian Adventist family, I am used to having to experiment my own and others healthy recipes. That being said, I think Mrs. Seinfeld goes a little over the top. Isn't there such a thing as being too healthy? I don't care to combine fruit and vegetable purees in the same dish at all...just don't like the idea. Use cage-free, veggie fed eggs in your baking and cooking, and as much wheat germ and unbleached whole grain flours as much as possible without sacrificing taste. This cookbook is looks like fun and has some great ideas so I recommend adding them to your "recipes to try" list.

- Fun and delicious
- Interesting approach for kids and adults. The recipes are delicious. The book is well made with a '50's format that is also fun and interesting, but well documented.
Delivery time was exceptionally quick for the cheapest fare, about 5 business days. Nice value.
I am sending a copy of the book to all the young mothers that I know. They have all loved it so far. - 2008-08-25, 0 of 0 people found this review helpful, Rated:
- Delicious Recipes
- I was a bit skeptical about this cook book until I actually bought it, and made some of the recipes. I have made over half the things in this book, and they have all been wonderful. My kids have not complained about one of them. They really liked the Spaghetti pie. It is a Must Have for those with pick eating kids.

- Yuck!
- I purchased this book with the hopes of finding ways to incorporate different veggies into my kids' meals. Well, I agree with all of the other posters who said IT IS NOT SUBTLE! Yikes - the cauliflower in the Mac & Cheese is so overpowering! All of the purees completely overwhelmed the meals - the beets, the butternut squash, spinach, etc. It was a total waste of money - my daughter refused to eat these meals. I started just putting the veggies themselves on my kids plates/trays, and IMAGINE THIS! They just ate it! I don't try to sneak things into my husbands' meals, why try to do it to my children? Plus, why are we trying to sneak these veggies? We have to teach our children healthy habits, and this is not the way to do it!
