Review:

"Fuentes (Best Homemade Kids' Lunches on the Planet) follows up with more than 200 snack recipes that are alternatives to the "expensive, processed box" kind. Complemented by color photos, the work offers a strategy that involves planning, buying in bulk, and having a well-stocked pantry. She advocates making big batches, prepping ahead, and freezing for time management. "Laura's tips" and "kitchen notes" are scattered throughout, providing more advice. Snacks range from red, white, and blue parfait (strawberries, blueberries, yogurt, and granola) to veggie dipping jars (hummus on the bottom of jar with raw veggies) to peaches and cream bread. One chapter features "reimagined classics" such as fresh fruit toaster pastries and homemade golden fishes. Recipes are also included for smoothies and frozen treats. A feedback chart at the back can be photocopied to allow readers to keep track of which recipes the kids liked. VERDICT Stocked with good ideas, these recipes will give families (not just the kids!) nutritional snacking options." - Library Journal
