If you pack a lunch for your children or are simply wondering how to get them to eat more healthfully, a new book offers helpful advice. Real Food for Healthy Kids (William Morrow, $29.95) is written by Tracey Seaman, test kitchen director of Every Day With Rachael Ray magazine, and Tanya Wenman Steel, editor in chief of Epicurious.com.
As mothers and food professionals, their expertise shows up in advice on everything from the best foods to stock in the pantry to put together a quick meal, to what foods kids should be eating, and why.
Much of the book is devoted to recipes, starting with fast breakfast offerings like toaster oven bean tacos. Fun lunch ideas include turkey pinwheels, a wrap packed with spinach, carrots and cranberries along with the usual deli turkey and cheese.
More adventurous offerings such as pork chops with pear stuffing, and chicken stew with green olives testify to the authors' belief that children shouldn't be fed a steady diet of bland food like chicken nuggets.
Keep an eye on the nutritional information included with each recipe. Some are higher in saturated fat and calories than I'd expect from a book focused on healthful eating.
