Hi Sneaky Chef!!

Can I use baby food instead of the making my own puree. I am a researcher and live 1 hour away from work and my husband is a Fire Fighter and with our schedules I rarely have time to make purees. I want the best for my daughter which why I am working hard now so I can take off later to be a full-time Mom. Would love the advice if you can give any!!

Dear Catherine,

Baby food works great in a pinch--use it one for one, exactly the same amount as the purees.

Stock up!

Enjoy in good health,

Missy

Hi Missy,
 
First I just want to thank you for helping me to get my 23 month old toddler to eat some vegetables.  I've used your advice and techniques to put the puree's into my own recipes.  My daughter won't eat much...VERY picky.  She will eat the meatloaf and twice baked potatoes from your book though.  I still have not been able to get her to eat any chicken however.
 
My friends and husband think I'm nuts for making all these puree's and some juices, packaging them in 1/4 portions and freezing them.  It's worked out great.  There is no greater feeling then knowing I'm taking care of my family...whether they know it or not!  (-:  My husband has asked that I not tell him anymore when he has had green puree and wheat germ in his food.  LOL!
 
Thanks again!

Dear Valerie,

Your letter made my day!

Over and over I get the same feedback: "This really works!" That, to me, is the beauty of being a sneaky chef. Your family is really eating vegetables, and your health will only benefit from that.

I'm going to have an extra big grin on my face, thinking of your daughter eating super foods. And please tell your husband he gets a gold star for supporting your sneaky streak!

With healthiest regards,

Missy
