Sneaky Puree

I was recently at the library with my boys and we were perusing the cookbook section. We were searching for kid friendly cookbooks, when I stumbled across The Sneaky Chef. I have heard of this before but never paid too much attention, since my boys are generally pretty good at eating their veggies. I did of course instantly think of the blog, so grabbed the book and gave it a quick once over. The first section has a bunch of different purees you can make, each sorted by colours. These various purees are called for in the next section, as additions to the recipes. I took a look at what we had on hand and made a puree of my own (I didn't go with similar coloured veggies, as you'll see). It reminded me of my babyfood making days! Tonight I added this puree to our pasta sauce, and reserved the rest in the fridge. Watch for it in some upcoming recipes. Perhaps you need a little help getting veggies in your kids', or even husband's, tummies. Sneaking them might just be the answer ;) Enjoy!
