 Yummy and healthy snacks April 15, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Though this is a thin book, it is full of good ideas for healthy snacks for kids that adults will also enjoy. The recipes are clear and easy to follow. I appreciate that there are plenty of egg-free and dairy-free snacks, which works well for us (household of food allergies). If you are used to lots of mainstream, store-bought junk food, the food might taste funny to you, but if you are into healthy foods and healthy snacks, it is a great book. The kids and I have been having fun with the recipes, and modifying some of them to add our own touches. I bought one as a gift for a friend, too.

This is an extremely useful and practical book full of simple ideas and recipes for snacks and lunches. The information on planning snacks definitely comes from an anthroposophical bent, which might be troubling to some readers, but overall it is a wonderful resource. It includes sample snack menus, information of eating "a grain a day" (as well as the energetic properties of the grains), and sections on bread, soup, fruit, birthday cakes & muffins, and special foods for the festivals. We use ours daily!

This book is wonderful!!! Everyone that has children or works with them should have a copy. The recipes are healthy and appetizing selections that are made from ingredients most of us have in our pantries. There are fun suggestions for celebrations and the charming illustrations just complete the package! Not to mention the very reasonable price! Even if you don't have little ones, get the book, you'll love it!!!
