5.0 out of 5 stars Great Strategies and Amazing recipes make eating healthy fun and easy February 8, 2012

By TeriM

I was concerned about my family's addiction to sugar and my child's reluctance to try new foods. Dinner had become a battle of wills with the constant drone of me saying; "finish your vegetables" to his: "how much to I have to eat to get a treat". I wanted my family to have a healthy love of food and an understanding of good food vs. junk food. What I gained from Nina's book was quite a bit more.

The book lays it all out in simple terms, with clear strategies for bringing healthy into the home. Starting with upgrading the quality of the food, to the fabulous refined sugar free recipes, to changing the mindset (especially mine) - we've been able to enjoy our dinners again and new foods are not always so scary for my 7 year old. The idea of creating a Buzz around the food really works. I no longer make a separate meal for him, which saves me time in the kitchen.

As for the sugar addiction, we're finally letting go of the refined sugar and white flour. We all have a better understanding of what foods are "grow foods" and I'm happy knowing I'm giving my son the tools he needs to make informed decisions about the food he eats. Healthy and yummy really are the same thing, especially the Chocolate Chip Cookies!

5.0 out of 5 stars A fabulous book to get your family on the road to healthy eating February 9, 2012

By Sandra Brougher

Nina's wisdom and experience is all over this book. Her recipes are delicious and my children gobble them up. Her knowledge of how to introduce healthy foods into a family with children is priceless. She makes it easy and seamless.
If you are a home with young children, picky eaters or unhealthy eaters, this is the cookbook for you.

I find this cookbook invaluable for so many reasons. Nina gives a clear and comprehensive pantry list to allow you to have healthy food ready all the time. Then she lists all the sweeteners that are healthy replacements for ones that are commonly used and explains why the common ones are not good. She de-mystifies sugar! Hooray! She gives advise about what we can do to avoid unhealthy foods at many times of the year where we can be sabotaged. She offers practical support the whole way through the book. And then the recipes! From breakfast all the way through dessert, there are tasty offerings. Each one I have tried was a hit.

This book offers coaching for a healthy lifestyle for the whole family.

One tip, if you follow Nina on Twitter (@SmokinHotMoms) you will have access to more recipes she posts. Last night I made the sweet potato fries from this book and homemade ketchup from her Tweets. My family who are all down with the flu with no appetite gobbled it all up, no leftovers. And all of it was nutritious! Success! It was the perfect comfort food.

Anyone who wants to make a healthy shift in their family's diet NEEDS this book. If you feel you already know a lot about healthy food, I still recommend this book. I can guarantee you will learn something new.
