Funny Food Made Easy

Who doesn't like to play with food? Through finished plate art, detailed step-by-step illustrations, recipes, and tips, Funny Food Made Easy provides all you and your kids need to make, eat, and enjoy healthy breakfasts, lunches, and snacks. Bill Wurtzel has been making these plates to teach and inspire children-and families-to improve their eating habits by creating meals and snacks that are not only nutritious but also fun. But these are not your mother's smiley-face sandwiches. On Wurtzel's plate-turned-canvas, carrots morph into airplanes, boiled eggs into jugglers, and pears into guitar players. As gracefully as Picasso's ceramic plates found endless forms, so do Wurtzel's portraits, which seem to grow out of almost anything-Cheerios and bananas; lox and bagels; oatmeal, blueberries, and strawberries.
