Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Shelly Null's book is BETTER then any cookbook by her dad. Her recipes are consistent with her nutritional advice, accurate and easy to follow. A very helpful feature is the "note" at the end of most recipes recommending alternatives for variety. Here are a few of my favorites from the book:
SAVORY QUICHE (I made it with mushrooms, spinach and roasted red peppers) was so good that my non-veg husband couldn't tell it had no cream or eggs. The healthy crust was simple to make and delicious. PECAN OATMEAL WAFFLES - super simple, super tasty. ROSENDALE CAFE STROGANOFF- a bit of work, but worth it. GARLICKY GREENS - 15 minutes start to finish & my 2 year old who hates greens was eating them off my plate!
Most recipes are easy and take very little time but don't trust the preparation time numbers. Rinsing grains and chopping veggies takes a bit more time then suggested. The Appendices are great. The Natural Foods Wholesalers section has already saved me many times the cost of the book.
I just reread my review over 2 years later... I still agree with it. Further, contrary to another review above, my son (now almost 4) and the one I've had since (age 1) both like hummus! Start 'em early!

Our children are overfed and undernourished. Even if they are not living on pizza and ice cream, they may be eating foods that can have serious long-term effects on their health. An ever-growing body of research is revealing that the major diseases Americans suffer and die from are lifestyle related and to an extent preventable in that some of the root causes begin in childhood. Many cases of childhood imbalances, such as obesity, hyperactivity, dental problems, and learning disabilities can be aggravated by poor eating habits. Shelly Null has written a comprehensive guide to feeding children better, from the crib to young adulthood, without sacrificing flavor or fun.
