Secrets of Feeding a Healthy Family:
Orchestrating and Enjoying the
Family Meal by Ellyn Satter M.S. R.D.
L.C.S.W. B.C.D
Great Recipes, Great Tips, Great Advice
Ellyn Satters Secrets of Feeding a Healthy Family takes a leadership role
in the grassroots movement back to the family table. More a cooking
primer than a cookbook, this book encourages singles, couples, and
families with children to go to the trouble of feeding themselves well. Satter
uses simple, delicious recipes as a scaffolding on which to hang cooking
lessons, fast tips, night-before suggestions, in-depth background
information, ways to involve kids in the kitchen, and guidelines on adapting
menus for young children. In chapters about eating, feeding, choosing
food, cooking, planning, and shopping, the author entertainingly helps
readers have fun with food while not eating unhealthily or too often. She
cites current studies and makes a convincing case for lightening up on fat

and sodium without endangering ourselves or our children. The book
demonstrates Satters dictum that “your positive feelings about food and
eating will do more for your health than adhering to a set of rules about
what to eat and what not to eat.”
Personal Review: Secrets of Feeding a Healthy Family:

It's so easy to get in a rut when you are trying to feed your family. Same
few dishes, same old fights with the kids. Who has time to try new cooking
techniques? Ellyn Satter does, and you can benefit, whether you have kids
at home or not. Dip in anywhere. The recipes are simple and tasty. More
importantly, this dietitian with a difference is no food Nazi. Her philosophy
is positive and enthusiastic: all food is good. Forget the food prescriptions,
dump dieting, and "lighten up." She says: "The secret of feeding a healthy
family is to provide yourself with enjoyable food and trust yourself to eat as
much as you need. Then do the same for your child." Buy it, read it, try it.
You'll feel a lot lighter when you let your eating guilt go.
