I just got a hold of a great book and wanted to pass it along to all of you. It is called "The Sneaky Chef" by Missy Lapine. Using simple purees she adds all kinds of vegetables and healthy things to foods most kids can't resist (yes spinach in brownies). I can see taking her ideas and adding a bit of our own CF high fat (ground flax seeds to the breading, opting for bean purees to add protein, high fat yogurts and extra olive oil here and there) tricks and ending up with some great recipes for kids.
I highly recommend getting this book and playing with her ideas. I am starting this weekend, so if anyone else gets it and wants to share your experiences, I'd be curious to hear how things went over.
Also, in the coming months, I will be adding calorie and vitamin information to the recipes on the CF Nutrition4Life. Maybe this will help in planning meals and calorie counting.
Take care,
