![]() ![]() Gluten Free SectionĪlthough the book did contain a Gluten-Free section, they did not include any recipes for people who have allergies or are lactose intolerant. These sections contain healthy recipes that I haven’t seen anywhere else and that I know my kids will enjoy. I really enjoyed the different sections dedicated to “Snacks for Kids”. Not only does it apply to my current situation, it also contains many recipes with some of my favorite ingredients (such as Tomato & Mozzarella Salad & Zucchini Hash Browns). My favorite section in the book was the “Healthy Snacks for Weight Loss” chapter. I find that many times I want to try something new but if the recipes are way too complicated, I end up choosing something different because I get easily overwhelmed. I really liked that this book includes tons of healthy recipes with simple instructions. This book mentions that if we offer them colorful foods, healthy dips for veggies, or simply healthier options with silly names (such as power sticks instead of carrots), kids are more likely to opt for the healthier foods. It also mentions how to entice our children to eat healthier just by being a little creative with the way we serve snacks or meals.Children mirror what their parents do therefore, if we eat junk, they eat it as well because they don’t know any better. It explains how our constant time restraints and stressful lifestyles lead to unhealthy diets. ![]() This book starts off giving examples of fast, yet simple ways to make snacks. If you see your average dollar menu at a fast food restaurant, an unhealthy hamburger costs way less than a healthy salad. A lot of times, people intend to eat well, but they just can’t afford to. Just the other day, one of my friends and I were discussing how buying healthy foods has become almost impossible because of the high prices. Eating healthy has become extremely difficult being that we are surrounded by so many fast food restaurants that are so convenient and inexpensive. It is ironic how I received The Ultimate Healthy Snack List to review, a little after both my husband and I vowed to start eating healthier foods. ![]()
