The Present, my toddler, is what I would consider a good eater. He will snack on edamame with me, he loves all sorts of fruit and will even leave sweets on his plate. But just like any kid, he loves to eat the likes of mac 'n cheese and other packaged foods that have little to no nutritional value.
That brings me to today, where I have been mixing, processing and pureeing foods to "slip" into his lunches and dinners. I got the idea from an Oprah show based on the book "Deceptively Delicious" by Jessica Seinfeld, but what I read on the Internet led me to the book, "The Sneaky Chef" by Missy Chase Lapine (her book was out before Seinfeld's).
Now I have all these little baggies in my freezer full of pureed white beans, broccoli and zucchini, carrots and yams, and my flour and bread crumbs are fortified with whole wheat flour and wheat germ. I hope I am as sneaky as Missy Chase Lapine!
I guess I will find out tomorrow when we have mac 'n cheese 'n carrots 'n yams for lunch...

Yay for you! Welcome to the world of blogging. Please let me know if you put yams in my mac & cheese when I come over for dinner. Hee Hee. You are a healthy food inspiration to me.
