Dr's Orders

So, with Winni's iron being low I have been experimenting with "sneaky cooking." What you do is make puree's of spinach and broccoli or spinach and blueberries or yams and carrots or cauliflower or white beans and something else. So, I made all these purees and have been sneaking them into recipes. Like the yams and carrot blend goes great in spaghetti sauce. Nearly untraceable. The cauliflower mixture in boxed mac n cheese was very Sidney Bristow. Julie experienced an ALMOST overwhelming urge to ralph when she tried the spinach and blueberry combination in my brownies. (I'm going to have to work really hard before any of my family tries my baking again! dangit!!)Sneaking the spinach and broccoli mixture underneath the PB on a PB&J didn't go undetected, because "mom, that is NOT jelly!" However, she still ate it. But, when I tried to sneak that same mixture in with her eggs, she was no fool. My mom was trying to convince her that she needed to eat the "green eggs" so that she could grow big and strong. I guess lately we have been using the excuse that "the dr says you need to eat this" a little too much because her response was "Grandma, the Dr didn't say 'eat green eggs!'" She is just too smart for her own good! However, in her defense, my dad tasted the green eggs and said they were awful!
