Leanne Ely has given us a wonderful gift with this book. Not only does it contain lots of great. family friendly recipes - but it is chockful of nutritional advice and lessons. Youc an even get lesson plans to go with it to help teach your children how to eat better. My family has gotten a lot of use out of this cookbook and I highly recommend it to all Moms or Dads who want to instill a little nutritional advice to their children.

I just recently watched Super Size Me, so this book was a great follow up. I found some yummy recipes and some great ideas on ways that I can improve my families eating, especially some neat trick to cut down on sugar and fat.

Very easy to read. I had my issues with a couple of her soapboxes, but overall, I love her approach to healthy, sensible nutrition. The recipies are sensible and foods that my children would actually eat. We're going to try some out this week.
