We all struggle with finding healthy foods to eat these days, especially since nutrition scientists often waffle back and forth as to whether certain items are good or bad (over recent years the humble egg has been both vilified and placed on a honorific pedestal). This dietary challenge is even harder for parents who know they want to put nutritionally sound meals on the table for their kids but don't know how to go about it. Lucky for those parents (as well as the rest of us), there's a new cookbook on the shelves that can help simplify the mealtime confusion. Real Food for Healthy Kids was written by Tracey Seaman (test kitchen director of Everyday with Rachael Ray) and Tanya Wenman Steel (editor in chief of Epicurious.com) and it contains 350 pages of parent and kid-tested recipes.
They offer great variations on standard breakfast meals like Carrot Cake Oatmeal (page 33) and Kiss-of-Honey Wheat Biscuits, good stuff for the lunch box like Turkey Pinwheels and kid-friendly dinners that will have even the pickiest eaters taking a few bits. There's also a section devoted to foods appropriate for babies and toddlers (ages six months to three years), which I'm certain many a new mom or dad will welcome.
