As a mother of three, Jessica Seinfeld can speak for all parents who struggle to feed their kids right and deal nightly with dinnertime fiascos. In Simple but Better, she offers appetizing alternatives for parents who find themselves succumbing to the fastest and easiest (and least healthy) choices available to them. Because although this cookbook filled with traditional recipes that kids love, its tasty treats are stealthily packed with hidden veggies!

With the help of a nutritionist and a professional chef, Seinfeld has developed a month’s worth of meals for kids of all ages that includes, for example, pureed cauliflower in mac and cheese and kale in spaghetti and meatballs. Seinfeld also provides revealing and humorous personal anecdotes, tear-out shopping guides to help parents zoom through the supermarket, and tips on how to deal with the kid that “must have” the latest sugar bomb cereal.

With Simple but Better, kids will never know that they’re eating veggies, but parents can be sure their kids are getting the vitamins and minerals they need. Jessica Seinfeld’s book is practical, easy-to-read, and a godsend for any parent that wants their kids to be healthy for a long time to come.
