I got a new cookbook called Deceptively Delicious, which teaches you how to puree fruits and veggies and hide them in food. So far, I have put butternut squash in mac n cheese and marinara sauces. I put sweet potatoes in taco meat and cauliflower in mashed potatoes. My kids and dh gobble it up and you can't taste it. Plus, I made some muffins with peanut butter, bananas, and carrots. We eat those for breakfast and they are so filling!!!
Anyway, I have very picky eaters (except my middle ds, he loves fruits and veggies) and veggies are not their most favorite foods in the world. So, if you have picky eaters also, try this book...I am also going to get The Sneaky Chef. It seems like a lot of work to puree everything, but it is actually kind of fun and does not take a lot of time. I use my blender to puree. Oh, and you can put spinach in brownies!!! Sounds gross, but it is good!
