Deceptively Doubly Delicious

To say that I am not one for cooking would be the understatement of the year.  I hate everything about cooking.  Everything.  It's the main reason that I didn't want Greg to apply for the Field Engineering Position in Fort Mac.  What would we eat?  Seriously, I am not kidding.

However, that being said, I have 2 cookbooks that I absolutely love and actually use on a regular basis:

Deceptively Delicious and Doubly Delicious by Jessica Seinfeld.  If you are a regular watcher of Oprah you have seen her on there and of course, we all know who her husband is.

I cook out of there all of the time.  On Sunday, I made banana loaf that had pureed cauliflower in it.  My french toast mix had carrot puree and you can use substitute that with pumpkin puree.

I make oatmeal regularly from there that contains peanut butter and pumpkin.  It's delicious.

The brownies are good, the chocolate chip cookies? Disgusting.  But that is the only thing I have made that was gross.  And by gross, I mean really gross.  I guess I don't like chickpeas, but to be fair both Greg + Jack do and even they wouldn't eat these cookies.

I love that it has all these hidden vegetable purees because ever since I got Pregnant with Finley, I hate raw vegetables and can barely tolerate cooked ones.

So I hereby give it 10 fingers up.  Ya it's that good.

I am on the waiting list for the Crabby Cook.  She was on the Today show last week and is geared towards cooks like me.  Once I get it from the library, I'll let you know how it is. Although, I am thinking it's gonna be a hit!
