description: We have become increasingly reliant on ready-made meals and snacks to feed our kids, many of which are low in essential nutrients and high in saturated fats, sugar, salt and additives. Such a diet, linked to soaring rates of childhood obesity and other diseases, is not a healthy one for a growing child. In this invaluable book, nutrition expert Rachael Anne Hill explains why the food our children eat is damaging their health, and shows how you can reverse this trend by cooking good food at home--without spending hours in the kitchen. Her recipes are quick and simple to prepare, made from everyday ingredients, and packed with all the nutrients your family needs. From Breakfast to Lunch Boxes, Snacks &amp; Drinks, Lunches &amp; Suppers, Desserts, and Party Food, there are recipes for every occasion that kids will love. Rachael also advises on which foods to buy and avoid, understanding food labels, and cutting through marketing hype. -Easy, nutritious recipes prepared in 20 minutes of fewer-- from breakfasts and lunches to speedy suppers, snacks and desserts. -This is a book no busy parent should be without, featuring all you need to know about what your children should eat and avoid. -Illustrated by food and lifestyle photographer Noel Murphy.
