Book Synopsis

With more than 100 step-by-step recipes shown in full-color photographic detail, Kids' Fun and Healthy Cookbook will prove that healthy food can be fun! This cookbook is a lively collection of recipes for kids that encourages healthy eating and asks kids to consider what they eat and how it affects their bodies.

Featuring everything from pizzas and burgers to tofu kebabs and seafood salads, each dish in Kids' Fun and Healthy Cookbook has been developed by an award-winning food writer to both nourish the body and tempt the taste buds. Step-by-step photographs help junior chefs through each recipe, and food fact sections highlight specific ingredients and detail what makes them nutritious.

The recipes in this book will take kids through their day from start to finish. Make nourishing breakfasts like breakfast tortillas, fruit smoothies, and banana pancakes; create light meals like turkey burgers and minestrone; move on to main courses like chicken drumsticks and pesto pasta; and top it all off with desserts like tropical yogurt ice, apple muffins, cherry pies, and sunflower seed rolls. A fact-filled introductory section introduces concepts like fruits and veggies, starches, proteins, and fats and sugars, while a handy glossary at the end clarifies all the terms and phrases kids need to know.

Get ready, get healthy, get cooking!
