Hi!
Last week Jerry Seinfeld's wife was on the Oprah Show. She has a great cookbook that has recipes with (hidden) broccoli, squash, carrots, spinach, etc. for brownies, chicken tenders, cookies and so on. She explains how to steam and puree the vegetables, freeze in zip-locks. Then you can slip the good stuff into the recipes. Kids can't even tell they are eating something healthy.
She said she spends around an hour each week preparing the healthy vegies for the upcoming week's meals.
When I get frozen "dinners" I opt for something like Amy's organic, no GMO meals. There are a few brands out there now that don't have the preservatives and additives that "Healthy Meal", Maria Calanders, Weight Watchers and most of the frozen meals have. The pictures on the box look healthy and wholesome, but read the ingredients before you buy and eat them.
Robin, wish you lived next door! Our kids could play together.
Itwl,
~jonsi
