Jessica Seinfeld rocks!

For those who haven't heard, the latest rave among moms of toddlers in Jessica Seinfeld's new cookbook Deceptively Delicious. The whole premise is "hiding" vegetables in regular foods. You puree the vegetables and use them in foods that can mask their real flavors. The first receipe I tried was a bust, but tonight was attempt number two, and boy was it a whopping success! I made macaroni and cheese with "hidden" beans and cauliflower, adding tons protein and lots of great vitamins to a common kid-favorite. I wasn't sure Eli would eat it in the first place because he's never really had mac & cheese before. However, our little man sat at the table and ate two bowlfuls of this healthy concoction - grinning ear to ear the entire time! Phenomenal! Thank you, Unkie, for the awesome Christmas gift! And thanks Mrs. Seinfeld for your great innovations. :)
