The Moms' Guide to Meal Makeovers: Improving the Way Your Family Eats, One Meal at a Time! Overviews
For busy moms, getting dinner on the table night after night can be a challenge. So it’s no surprise that they often rely on fast food, takeout, and convenience meals like macaroni and cheese, chicken nuggets, and fries. The kids love it, but the drawback is that little twinge of guilt moms feel every time they feed their family another marginally healthy meal. At the end of the day, many children end up with a poor diet high in sugar, saturated fat, and calories. . . a major factor in the rising rates of obesity.
High-profile dietitians Janice Bissex and Liz Weiss show fellow moms a better way. In their book, they offer realistic guidelines designed to give families a healthy meal makeover. The duo’s 5-Step Meal Makeover Plan begins with new advice on how to market good nutrition to kids, establish food rules, and make life easier in the kitchen. Their Best of the Bunch Chapter reveals which brands of kid convenience foods—hot dogs, frozen pizza, and more—are the best- tasting and most nutritious ones out there. They follow up with tips for stocking a healthy pantry, and then serve up 120 recipes for family favorites such as Fast-As-Boxed Macaroni and Cheese, Squishy Squash Lasagna, Cheesy Broccoli Soup, Sweet Potato Fries, and Chocolate Pudding with Toppers. All come complete with nutrition information and have been made over to be faster and more nutritious than the originals.
The Moms’ Guide to Meal Makeovers tackles what’s wrong with today’s all-American diet and offers realistic and delicious ways to improve it.

The Moms' Guide to Meal Makeovers: Improving the Way Your Family Eats, One Meal at a Time! CustomerReview
I love this cookbook and these ladies. All the recipes I've tried have been yummy, easy and nutritious. I'm not very comfortable in the kitchen, am not a very good cook and really struggle with what to make for my family for dinner each night. I found Janice and Liz's podcast this summer and loved it. They mentioned their book so I got it right away. It's my favorite cookbook--and I've bought lots because I need lots of help. After making several of their recipes (and having good results), I feel more comfortable in the kitchen, cook more often and am willing to try foods and ingredients that I would have been too intimidated to try before. I know they are working on their next cookbook and I'm looking forward to getting it as soon as it comes out.
