Nourishing Traditions Cookbook for Children

Description

by Suzanne Gross and Sally Fallon Morell

Illustrated by Angela Eisenbart; Cover by Kim Waters

With over six hundred thousand copies sold, Nourishing Traditions is a phenomenon that has captured the imagination of America’s health conscious consumers. The Nourishing Traditions Cookbook for Children provides children with the key messages of the parent book―the benefits of eggs, butter, bone broths and soups, lacto-fermented foods, meat and organ meats. Beautifully illustrated, the book teaches the basics of healthy cooking step by step. Children and their parents will enjoy lots of original recipes for healthy snacks, desserts, baked goods, lunches and breakfasts.

Cooking the Nourishing Traditions way means following the wisdom of our ancestors, whose food ways were mindful of the earth, the animals and their own bodies. It means avoiding industrial processed foods (and dietary advice that promotes these foods) and instead, selecting natural, nutrient-dense foods. Inside this book, you will find an entire chapter devoted to butter!

Eggs, raw milk, meats, broth, fermented foods, whole grains and vegetables all take their turn in the spotlight. Children learn why these foods are good for them and how the way food is grown, processed and prepared can either help or hurt us. Over one hundred recipes invite children into the kitchen to learn preparation of nourishing meals, snacks and treats.

Colorfully illustrated,  Nourishing Traditions Cookbook for Children describes the principles of good nutrition in a simple language that children can understand. Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, nannies, teachers and anyone involved in a young person’s life can use this book to successfully equip children with the skills and wisdom they need to nourish themselves and–one day soon–their own families.
