Deceptively Delicious: Simple Secrets to Get Your Kids Eating Good Food

I made this with my 4-year-old. She did ask what the green stuff was (a cup of pureed broccoli) but I just said, "Green stuff." She didn't say anything about the half-cup of pureed carrot. There are a lot of spices (ginger, allspice, cloves) to mask the broccoli (I presume) so it smells like pumpkin pie while it's baking. Not a bad thing... Both my girls loved it! My older daughter took it school for a snack. I thought it was fine, especially with a slice of old cheddar, but my husband thought it could use raisins. I will definitely make it again.
