Review: The Sneaky Chef

Giveaway is closed. I'll get the winner posted by Tuesday... we've had a fun and busy weekend together as a family! :)

It's official... I've found the newest best thing since sliced bread! Ok, so that may be taking things a little far, but it's pretty cool just the same. We talk quite a bit about menus and nutrition for our little ones around here (ok, so we've been slacking on the nutrition a bit since Sweet Pea was born, but that doesn't mean I'm not working on it behind the scenes.) The more I look into all the nutrients we are supposed to have and where they can be found and how many of what foods and which foods how often and all that stuff we need (can anyone say run on?), the more I see how very difficult it is to have children and too feed them at the same time. The whole process can make a person mad (and by that I mean crazy, not angry... just clarifying.)

So several weeks ago I turned to Google for help, searching for recipes that slip veggies and such into other things. I thought it would be easier to get all those nutrients in if the main dish part of our meal also had a little something extra. Then there it was... The Sneaky Chef! I promptly emailed the publicist asking for a copy of her book to review and give away on my blog and she promptly sent one to me. Since then I've been reading and sampling and I have a review for you. :)

Author Missy Chase Lapine gives us The Sneaky Chef: Simple Strategies for Hiding Healthy Foods in Kids' Favorite Meals. In the book she paints a picture of what many of us moms go through on a daily basis. The takes these things from her own life with two young girls, both picky eaters. Lapine talks about reasons our children are picky and a handful (or more) of strategies to help them get the nutrients they need. Differing from the suggestions my other child nutrition book gave only slightly, Lapine actually tells us how to do it... step by step.

I heartily recommend this book. There I said it. It was an easy read and has tons of great and easy to implement techniques for getting that nutrition into our children. The best part is that she uses those recipes that your children already love, incorporating fruits, veggies and fiber into Mac n Cheese, chicken fingers, pizza, and even brownies! The list goes on! By adding purees you make ahead to everyday recipes your children are getting spinach, cauliflower, carrots, sweet potatoes, blueberries and more... without a fight!

The only negative aspect I found in this book was the "sneaky" component. Though she does a great job of justifying her sneakiness, telling us it's no different than any other mis-truth we would give or detail we would omit for their own good, the idea is still not something I believe would honor the Lord in my home. As you read and implement the principles Lapine teaches, you must remember that it is still written from the world's perspective. Be sure you read it, like everything else you read, through the lens of Scripture.

So what does this mean? Can we not use "The Sneaky Chef" in our own kitchens? I think we can. My plan is to incorporate many of these recipes (especially the animal crackers, granola bars and cookies) into my own recipe box, but not to hide the ingredients from or lie to my children (and let's face it, My Beloved too) about what's inside. Really and truly, Tornado is too young to care at this point what is in the foods he loves. By the time he is, it won't faze him at all that cauliflower is in his mac n cheese... it's all he'll know.

Some of you may have children, like Lapine, who are uninterested in a food simply because of what's in it, even though they've never tasted it. You may need to figure out your own way to go about things. You may choose not to divulge the ingredients list before they eat the brownies or spaghetti, but really... do you tell them the ingredients of the foods you make now?

Over all this is a great book and I believe it will help many of you with your food battles!

To win a copy of this book (only slightly used as I had to review it first), leave a comment on this post and I'll pick a winner this weekend!!! See here for more details on the giveaway (like where I'll ship). And at the end of the week I'll have a link for those of you who don't win the book to get your own! :)

There you have it... my kitchen tip. Find more here.

I think the concept of increasing nutritional values in family measl is great. It is nice that you are going to be up front with your family about what you are adding. My little guy is challenging to feed and I would love to receive this book. Thank you for the review and the giveaway!

Great review. I have been thinking about getting this book for a long time. My toddler use to eat everything, but now it's all grilled cheese and macaroni! She does like fruit, but I'd love to "sneak" in more veggies. I totally agree about the "sneaky" part. I don't think anyone will mind that there are veggies in things and I will be truthful as well. Like you said, she won't know the difference! Her daddy might though... But as long as I don't add raw onions or celery it should be fine with him!

As I've shared briefly on my own blog, I never found the need to add extra ingredients to the food we eat because my older two are such good eaters and love fruits and veggies. However, now I have a child who would live on applesause and bread if I let him so this idea really appeals to me!

Sneakiness may help but also kids need to learn why the vegetables are good for them. Looks like a great books for adding to the veggie idea list.

loved your review - i too agree that "sneaking" isn't such a good thing - luckily, my daughter is too young to ask "what's in this?" but when she does, i'll tell her the truth & not skirt around it! i could really use the help in getting her to eat & like healthier foods! thanks for entering me!

I would love to have this book! After reading your review, I am more sure that it would be helpful. It is my dh that doesn't get enough veggies. It amuses me that he makes the kiddos eat everything on their plate, yet doesn't eat his own veggies. Thanks for the generous giveaway.

Have a blessed day,

It does sound like a great book, especially since I have a picky hubby and semi-picky 18 month old. But I totally agree with you about the sneakiness. I would still tell my hubby about what is really in it. And Emma could care less at this point. Thanks for the giveaway!

I like the idea of this book and using it to unsure my children are eatting enough vegtables! I still believe in offering the vegtables to them but this would make me feel more comfortable with letting a few bites slide ;) Thanks for the entry

How wonderful!!
As the mom to a 2 year old, I would love to learn how to give her food extra nutritional value. I also agree with you about the 'sneaky' aspect - as DD grows, I want to teach her how to cook and show her how to add these extras into her food and how easy it can be.
She does eat well, but we can all use a boost from veggies and fruits!!
Keeping my fingers crossed to win. ;)

Thanks again for a great blog.

What a good review. I do agree with you that we should not be sneaky and not telling them the truth. Giving them a good example about not lying is very important to start in early age. I have 8 mos baby boy and everyday I learn to ensure that we show him good examples.Adore By Nat

I have flipped through Deceptively Delicious before giving it to my sister for Christmas, and I must admit, if the food tastes good, I don't see a problem with increasing its nutritional value and fiber. I would be very interested in reading this cookbook as well.

My oldest 2 children have always been wonderful eaters. They will try anything and they eat healthy foods with gusto!

I never thought I'd have a child who snubbed his nose at anything.....then Baby Boy #3 came along. He ate baby food with glee. Then it all went downhill. He refused to eat much of anything (and continues to), except for fruit, cheese, pastas, and cereals (both cold and hot).

I really want him to eat more vegetables, but he just won't. What's a mom to do??

The Sneaky Chef cookbook is very intriguing to me. I love the idea of incorporating veggies into kid favorites.

Like you, I'm not too eager about the sneaky part of it....I'd probably mention what is in the dish and hope that my Picky Little Guy will still eat. I believe that he would. I think the problem is the actual vegetables sitting there that he doesn't like. If they were blended in, I'm sure he wouldn't mind as much.

Thank you for the giveaway!

I agree, I kind of dislike being sneaky, and I do think kids should learn to just eat whole foods, but sometimes you have to make sure they are getting the nutrition they need. Maybe sneaking some in and also giving them veggies on the plate whole is a good balance.

Would love to read the book.

What an awesome idea to sneak some good foods into my hubs and 3 year old. We could def. use some ideas on how to live healthier for our futures. Thanks for the awesome give away chance!

 
At July 30, 2008 at 5:00 PM , Blogger PS said...

I'm really not a fan of sneaking in food. I think kids should learn to like what they eat and why it is important. However we all have those weeks where they just aren't eating their veggies and it would be great to sneak some into their favorite foods!

 
At July 30, 2008 at 5:43 PM , Blogger Suzie Williams said...

I agree that being sneaky may not feel too good. I think our household could really use this book but instead of being sneaky, I'd tell them (after they liked the food of course!) what was in it. That way they would realize that everything really can taste good if you prepare it that way. Might encourage them to try more new foods as well.

At July 30, 2008 at 8:22 PM , Blogger Susanna said...

Sounds like a cool book. But I also don't like the idea of kids only getting the fruits and veggies that are disguised in these foods. They still need to be offered foods they don't "like" to grow in being able to eat them, but I'm all for getting a little extra nutrition.

I am one of those people who add extra nutrition to everything. Fruit to oatmean, grated carrots to meatloaf etc. I would love to get more ideas from this book. I don't have to sneak, nobody at all in my family is interested in what goes on in the kitchen, just what comes out of it!

 
At July 30, 2008 at 10:35 PM , Blogger Gina @ MoneywiseMoms said...

I'm very upfront with my son about what I'm "sneaking" in the food. He loves it--he sees it as a game and is fascinated by how different things taste when they're raw or pureed (he's almost 5, btw). My toddler twins don't know yet, but they're the picky eaters so I'm just glad they're getting veggies.

Thanks for doing the giveaway!

At July 31, 2008 at 12:53 AM , Blogger Alyce said...

I like that you are not sneaky about it. We've tried to present food in a positive manner no matter what we're eating, and our kids love salads and broccoli. They just think everyone likes it. Sometimes I don't tell them about new things unless they ask though. (So somtimes I do try to be sneaky.) Today we had fruit smoothies with pistacchios and they had never had them before. They took a few drinks, asked what the "yellow things" were and I told them and they thought it was great.

 
At July 31, 2008 at 1:09 AM , Blogger Kimberly said...

I'm grateful that my kids eat veggies including broccoli and spinach, but I think finding creative ways to get more veggies into them is great too. I don't think I'd need to be sneaky per say but I also don't have to come right out and tell them what is inside either. LOL!

I love both this book and the other, deceptively delicious. I think the idea is genius! Although, I also think kids should learn to eat their veggies and understand their nutrition (easier said than done). But why not approach food with both angles?! You can sneak in some veggies, and also offer some normally. Thanks for a great giveaway!! laurachilton {at} hotmail {dot} com

I think this would be a wonderful book... not just to help feed my daughter, but also to help feed me. *shame* I don't have the best nutritional habits in the world--in fact my daughter may be more open-minded about food than I am--and as the days wear on I see that I can't quite get away with eating whatever anymore.

A little more difficult for me to say... but I think you may be taking the title a little too seriously. I am glad to read it didn't turn you off from the cookbook entirely because that seems like it would be a shame. To me it comes across pretty tongue in cheek, something a little funny to grab attention.

Thank you for the cool giveaway!

I so appreciate all your comments.

I agree with all of you who have mentioned that veggies should still be served with the meal. I should have said that originally. It is important to My Beloved and I that our children learn to eat healthy. Problem is that I'm not always great at having things pulled together.

I appreciate your comment too Kathleen about taking the title too seriously. My review and input came from reading the body of the book, not the title only. Though I don't think the author's techniques are all wrong, I do like to stay above reproach and teach my children honesty and God honoring ways. As far as appreciating a catchy title... I'm somewhat ashamed to say that I LOVE the title to her second book... The Sneaky Chef: How to Cheat on your Man in the Kitchen. :) If I were sensitive to things like that, I wouldn't approve of this title either. :)

I'm interested in seeing some of the recipes. As a dietitian I'm a little skeptical of the nutritional benefits as well as the "sneaky" part you mentioned. Eating a whole pan of brownies for 1/2 c of broccoli, for instance?

Wow! 80 comments! everyone wants to win a copy. I m right there with everyone. We could all use some help in different ways to feed our toddlers. My guy is 13 months, and he is SO picky. I am bogged down by thinking of ways to get nutritional things into his body. Thanks for the menus you emailed me. Good review!

It sounds good. My kids have their favorites, and it is hard to get them to try new things.
