Customer Rating:      Summary: Not even close... Comment: This concept is great to me--love the idea of fortifying foods to make them better. We need more of this in our American diet that largely lacks good nutrients--both for children and adults.
I made the brownies as the first recipe thinking this would be the best place to start. They looked good, smelled good... and tasted absolulely nothing that even resembled chocolate. We were baffled. We had to actually spit them out.
I thought they would be somewhat tasty... afterall, they're brownies!
I am willing to try another recipe to see if this cookbook can redeem itself. We'll see. So far, though: yuck.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Healthy Choice for kids. Comment: I found this cook book to be a great way to make healthy meals and snacks for kids and the whole family. My husband and I love the pancakes. It got my creative juices flowing and now I have found that I can make healthy meals for my family without a lot of fuss. You can sneak healthy veggies into almost any meal. So if your in a rut like I was on how to make healthy meals that the whole family can enjoy, this is a great book to buy.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent Book! Great Ideas! Comment: I originally bought this book because my nephew just loves brownies. He eats them for breakfast and snacks. So, I wanted some healthy recipes for him. After going through the book a little, I realized this would be a great cookbook for me as well being that I have high cholesterol.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Deceptively Delicious is a Winner! Comment: Deceptively Delicious is a excellent way to get some good food into our kids diets. It does require a bit of organization and prep work, but slipping in veggies to an otherwise kid-friendly meal is a brilliant idea. Kudos to Jessica Seinfeld for developing these tasty, sneaky snacks.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Deceptively Delicious cookbook Comment: The cookbook itself is a great book.. easy to follow and has some different and really good recipes... the only complaint I have is not with the book contents, but the fact that when it arrived it was not put together.. the spiral was around the pages and the hard cover was not attached to the spiral.. that was a major challenge to get it done and done right because I don't think it is put together right as yet... makes it a little hard to be turning the pages... other than that, well satisfied..
