Deceptively Delicious by Jessica Seinfeld


You are probably asking yourself, "Why is she promoting this recipe book on my Emergency Preparedness blog?" Well, I belong to a produce co-op and every other week my family receives a laundry basket full of fruits and veggies for $15. Sometimes, we don't eat them fast enough and they go bad. Other times, it is a new veggie and I may not know how to fix it. Or, we get an abundance of something and I get tired of eating it every day. After reading this book, I discovered a new way of preparing some fruits and veggies to be kept in the freezer. Another plus is that I can hide veggies (that my kids won't normally eat) in my meals. Two positives to this that I can see...I am getting my kids to eat more veggies and I am storing extra food. So when I get those beets that I don't normally use, I can prepare them (as suggested in her book) and add them to pancakes, waffles, etc. My kids won't know a thing, other than they look cool because they are pink.
