Fruits and Veggies- More Matters is an organizations that motivates people to eat more fruits and vegetables to improve public health. They have a great amount of marketing and education programs and are very involved in school systems. They were kind enough to send us their recipe book for kids to review for all of our readers!
This cool fuel cookbook gives recipes for breakfast, side dishes, main dishes, smoothies, and snacks, and the main purpose is to incorporate lots of fruits and vegetables in each dish. Each recipe gives ingredients, directions, nutritional information, and what the recipe is a good source of, such as fiber or vitamin C. This book is easy for parents to follow and fun for kids to help out. Each recipe is titled creatively to make the experience enjoyable for children. Examples include Purple Party Parfait, Banana in a Blanket, and Crazy Curly Broccoli Bake.
If you have children or are even just trying to include more fruits and vegetables into your diet I would definitely recommend this cookbook.

Very timely post about fruits and veggies book. I have not been able to think about eating much else in this heat. I watched my husband eat a hamburger and a hot dog last night and I had just what I wanted, a tomato and a bowl of peach slices. This is a first for me, I am hoping it means I am listening to my body and going with it?? If so, this is a real success for me. Anyway, the web site and book appeal very much right now!
