A book aimed at both parents and children to read and create healthy food together.
Like many working parents, professional nutritionist and mother Audrey Schaerrer found that at times cooking dinner to be a dreaded chore between battling long working hours, homework and bedtimes. Not to mention finding time for quality time.
One day she asked her daughter Sophia, 11, to help her cook dinner and it became a game. Sophia would read facts whilst her mother prepared a meal. What had been a chore became a special bonding time that Audrey looked forward to.
Audrey began to experiment, moving from cooking dinner together to creating a delicious, healthy and nutritionally balanced packed lunch with the left - overs from the night before, which her daughter loved. In a way extending the bonding connection and good memories of the evening to school and office lunch times.
Effected herself from childhood bullying around her weight, Audrey felt passionately that by cooking with our children and talking to them about food will help to instill healthy relationships with food and our bodies in a society where toxic narratives with both are still prevalent.
