First up, the book is spiral bound which makes it great for keeping the page open on the right recipe!. The first section clearly outlines various useful items to have in your kitchen for pureeing, baking, etc. Then there is a list of must haves for your pantry. How to puree is explained as is the basics of cooking rice, pasta, chicken and beef. A nutritionist then explains who much we should eat and what each veggie and fruit is good for in keeping us healthy.

Now to the good part, the recipes....they are set out under breakfast, mealtime and dessert. Scattered throughout are comments for the Seinfield children and others. Each recipe has the 'hidden' veggie, etc. listed in different colour which I think is a great idea. The recipes are straightforward and the tummy starts growling just reading them!!

Recommended for everyone, not just the kids!

This is a very smart cookbook. To be able to make meals for your kids, and have all the vegetables hiden inside is simply a great idea. I made the spinach and carrot Brownies in it, My children almost ate all of them in one whole day.
I have a lovely Two year who at this stage in his life does not want to eat any thing that is good for him and the reciepes in this book has now made our meal time a pleasure.
Definenty worth buying.

This is hands down the BEST cook book i have used, and what's better is no-one knows there are vegetables in the meals! I made the lasagna for my neighbours and they we very surprised and impressed to find out what was in it. Its brilliant and so easy. i LOVE it and my family does too :)

Love this book. A great buy, and everything really is as easy to do as the book says. Spent a hour in my first week preparing purees for the whole week. Kids don't have a clue what they are eating.
Lovely lay out, easy to read, informative, SPIRAL BOUND (bonus), easy to follow recipes, although I haven't gone the whole hog, I still use regular marg or butter and whole eggs, results are still great.
Only critisim is that temps are in in F, would of like to see celcius too.

Really like this book, as it is a great option for getting good food in to the kids. Great buy.

This was a worthwhile purchase. Although many of the recipes are a bit 'American' for my tastes, and include ingredients not easily obtainable in Australia (Turkey mince, anyone?), a good many of them are tasty, easy to make and delicious for everyone. The biscuits with zucchini and banana have been a huge hit with children and adults alike. Includes ideas you can easily adapt to other recipes to make veggies more palatable for the littlies. It's a shame the recipes use US measurements only.

I really enjoyed the ease of use in ordering the book. The 50% discount offer helped. All in all the delivery price and availability of the stock was seamless. The ability to track the order online was great and the product was delivered on time aand intact.

Thanks for the convenience.

Wonderful book, lifesaver with my kids at dinner time. We have gone from having 2 fussy eaters and unhappiness at the table to joy and nothing left on the plate!!!!

I made this purchase with my young grandchild in mind. His parents agree with me that the book is fantastic; it not only has great recipes but also talks about the nutritional value of specific foods. It is written in easy style with busy parents in mind. It will be a welcome addition to the cooking library of any parent of young children.

I still have not received it, a second copy was posted last week. So I am still waiting.
