I don't believe in inflicting strong beliefs on my kids, but rather to give them plenty of options to help them make their own decisions later in life - just as my parents did with me. That includes vegetarianism - I was a veggie for 16 years, but lapsed 5 years or so ago.When my six year old asked where sausages came from, I told her the whole story - not in graphic detail, but every step of the journey from the pig to the plate. She seemed relatively unfazed, but does ask to have meat free meals on occasion, and that's why I bought this book - veggie breakfast to me used to mean cereal, toast or eggs!It's nice to read a personal recipe book for a change, and Katie introduces each simple to follow meal with an evocative tale from Texas. There are a wide variety of hot and cold breakfast here, from easy to prepare oatmeals and porridges, pancakes, muffins, smoothies, bagels and even an Apple Coleslaw - yum!
