Kitchenista: "Breakfast Ice Cream" from The Sneaky Chef
I am, in a general sense, opposed to sneaking foods into my kids, and other than a little experimentation I’ve never really tried, or paid much attention to the possibilities. Some misplaced sense of honor or idealism, I think. But now that I’ve got one kid beginning to see the light about trying new foods, and another one who’s suddenly taken a turn for the picky, maybe it’s time to rethink my policies a bit.
Looking at the sample recipes on The Sneaky Chef’s website, I realize that I don’t have to stop offering vegetables in their natural state just because I’ve also got them hidden in the cheeseburgers. Plus, it’s an easy way to make sure we’re all getting enough fruits and vegetables. Heck, I’m even intrigued by the idea of adding baby food blueberry-applesauce to my baked goods and meatloaf, blueberries being the superfood that they are.
There’s a slight possibility that my new openness to the food-hiding concept has something to do with this recipe that the Sneaky Chef herself provided for me to try out, just in time for special first-day-of-school breakfasts:
