Summary

David， Luise and their three kids are a family who love to cook together。 But like most families， they still struggle to get a nutritious and delicious meal on the table every night， that also satisfies their hunger for creative， globally-inspired food。 Take your own inspiration from their quest to bring joy back to the dinner table: whip up a batch of Friday Night Hulk Burgers and Sweded Fries （made with spinach， quinoa， oats and peas）， or Stuffed Rainbow Peppers with black rice， feta， raisins， pistachios， cinnamon and beans。

This latest collection from the beloved duo behind the Green Kitchen Stories blog will include 50 recipes， each with an 'upgrade' option to make meals even more interesting for adults （e。g。 top with a poached egg/kimchi/more herbs or serve with a chermoula sauce/side salad， quinoa instead of pasta）。 All of the dishes are veggie-packed， colorful。 kid friendly and simple—with most including less than 8 ingredients and taking under 30 minutes to prepare。

I have been a vegetarian for years and I'm looking for new recipes to add to my rotation。 I didn't even see one recipe that I wanted to try。 They seemed very bland and unappetizing。 I have been a vegetarian for years and I'm looking for new recipes to add to my rotation。 I didn't even see one recipe that I wanted to try。 They seemed very bland and unappetizing。 。。。more

My love for all things Green Kitchen Stories continues。 Approachable， family-friendly， and healthy without sacrificing taste， creativity， or variety。 In regular rotation at my house。

Cynthia ，

I really appreciate the info about ‘active time’ and total preparation time which are actually accurate。It’s also nice to have an adult adaptation for which recipe and they’re exactly what fits my taste。Great variety。

Cherie ，

Wonderful cookbook full of family-friendly recipes， super healthy。 I had to buy this one！ YUM！

Amanda ，

So far not a single recipe from Green Kitchen has failed me。 Also， despite being a meat eater， I don't seem to miss meat when I serve one of these recipes。 Delicious！ So far not a single recipe from Green Kitchen has failed me。 Also， despite being a meat eater， I don't seem to miss meat when I serve one of these recipes。 Delicious！ 。。。more

Kristell ，

My favorite recipe book！ It is covered with post-it of what the kids would like me to cook and I can assure you， almost no pages are left without a post-it！ It’s easy， tasty and colorful！！ And kids LOVE to be a helping hand 😉

What does a vegetarian family eat？ This is a good question -- one that I've heard many， many times。 I can totally understand where people's curiosity comes from -- I wasn't always a vegetarian！ Like most families （vegetarian or not）， we're all just trying to figure it out。 This is where a book like Little Green Kitchen comes in -- full of vegetarian recipes plucked from the real family-life experiences of Frenkiel and Vindahl it offers a useful guide to anyone who's cooking for and with a family What does a vegetarian family eat？ This is a good question -- one that I've heard many， many times。 I can totally understand where people's curiosity comes from -- I wasn't always a vegetarian！ Like most families （vegetarian or not）， we're all just trying to figure it out。 This is where a book like Little Green Kitchen comes in -- full of vegetarian recipes plucked from the real family-life experiences of Frenkiel and Vindahl it offers a useful guide to anyone who's cooking for and with a family。 So， instead of sitting down with the new cookbook to see what I'd like to make for my review， I had K sit down with me， armed with thin plain-paper bookmarks， so that she could take "her book" and choose what we could make together。The first recipe to catch her eye was the Dino Burgers and， how could it not？ The image accompanying the recipe had a plastic toy dinosaur looking like he's about to take a bite out of a green burger （or， at least this is how K saw it）。 Coincidentally this was the first recipe I decided to make。 These patties are exquisite。 Probably one of the best veggie burgers I've made！ We love the green colour （spinach， frozen peas， basil） and the nuttiness which the quinoa provides。 The basil gives the burger such flavour， but you know what the secret is？ It's the unbelievable burger dressing （mayo， capers， and ketchup） which makes this recipe so good。 As with all the recipes in the book， including this one， the authors give "A Helping Hand" tip for ways in which kids can help with the recipes。 For the Dino Burgers， kids can help form the burger patties and slice up all the fixings that will adorn the burg。 My daughter loves being a hand model for my food pictures and， normally the pictures are very static but in the case of these burgers once she got to "decorating" her burger I just tried to snap the action as it happened。 And， you know what？ Since she was so invested in the process from start to finish， she ate that burger with the most content look on her face！What can I tell you about the recipes？ I've made 15 and I'm certain that I could cook through this book and not find a single bad recipe。 Their recipe for Tofu Cashew Masala is so good that I think it's edged out our number one favourite tofu recipe: Crispy Broccoli and Tofu w/ Peanut Pesto from the Smitten Kitchen Every Day （sorry Deb！）。 What the good folks at the Green Kitchen have done is to put their own spin on Indian paneer butter masala。 Instead of paneer， you use cubes of tofu！ Delicious and saucy -- it gets extra points because it's served on rice （my husband and daughter's favourite）。 It's also very easy to make， so I could， literally， make it every day if they asked。This is the beauty of Little Green Kitchen -- vegetable-forward recipes， minimal amount of ingredients， and recipes that yield the most delicious meals！ What I can appreciate is how the book recognizes that there can be some differences between a kid's plate and an adult's plate so Frenkiel and Vindahl provide "Adult Upgrade" tips so that if you want to be more adventurous with your plate， in terms of flavour and texture， then there are add-ons。 When we made the Rainbow Pancakes （the carrot version: the carrot gets blended into the batter thus creating a lovely orange-ish coloured crepe-like pancake）， we filled them with shredded carrot and feta with a squeeze of lemon （the kid version uses cottage cheese and the "adult upgrade" version has crumbled feta， sauerkraut， and a basil and kale salad with a lemon vinaigrette）。 While my daughter liked the savory version well enough， what she couldn't get enough of is one of these carrot pancakes filled with almond butter and jam。 A version of this pancake recipe can be found in their last book Green Kitchen at Home and， it was so popular with their kids and the people cooking from that book that they've included it here。 I love Green Kitchen at Home and this is one of the recipes I've cooked again and again for my daughter。 When you find recipes your kid loves， you keep it on the meal rotation！They've organized the recipes into 6 chapters: Everyday Meals， Party Food， Lunchbox Favourites， Snacks + Drinks， Condiments + Upgrades， and Baking + Sweets。 Some of you may be wondering how Little Green Kitchen differs from Green Kitchen at Home？ When I first heard that Frenkiel and Vindahl's next book would focus on cooking for kids， I was a bit surprised because I felt that Green Kitchen at Home was about this topic。 While containing the same colourful， interesting， and inspired recipes that I've come to appreciate from the Green Kitchen Stories this book offers a more simplified approach with a real focus on what their kids （and kids in general） enjoy eating。 I know that sometimes I struggle with those "everyday meals" and what they're offering here are recipes to suit this need。 The recipe for Halloumi Souvlaki Pitta Pockets w/ Tzatziki is one of the quickest recipes to make and， it's given me another useful way to cook halloumi （one of my daughter's favourite things）。 As I've cooked through this book， I've come to realize that vegetarian cooking doesn't have to be complicated。 Little Green Kitchen is the perfect recipe playbook for my vegetarian family but， if you or your family isn't vegetarian this book can still offer delicious food and tons of inspiration （there's also no reason why you can't sub in meat into some of the recipes）。 Please note that this review is an excerpt of one posted to www。shipshapeeatworthy。wordpress。comI would like to take this opportunity to thank Hardie Grant Books and Raincoast Books for providing me with a free， review copy of this book。 I did not receive monetary compensation for my post， and all thoughts and opinions expressed are my own。 。。。more
