We're thrilled to announce that The Sneaky Chef is back for another guest appearance on Ignite!  Last year, Missy Chase Lapine (aka The Sneaky Chef) joined us on Ignite to share tips from her first bestselling book, The Sneaky Chef: Simple Strategies for Hiding Healthy Foods in Kids Meals.  She shared blogs about how to easily add healthy ingredients to kid favorites, like brownies, macaroni and cheese and chocolate chip cookies.  And she participated in a Live Chat, where she answered your questions and offered solutions not shared in the book. (You can view a transcript of that chat by logging in, clicking on Live Chat in the top-right corner and then clicking on the transcript for Live Chat with The Sneaky Chef.)

And now, she's back for seconds.  This time she's expanded her cooking secrets to target what she calls "the other picky eater in the family" with her new book – The Sneaky Chef: How to Cheat on Your Man (In the Kitchen) Hiding Healthy Foods in Hearty Meals Any Guy with Love.

While the last book had tricks for healthier meals for kids, these recipes are geared toward adults (and specifically, men). They include lots of ingredients that are good for the heart, lower cholesterol and promote a healthy prostate.  For example, the Doctor's Choice Chili has beans in whole and puree form and the Barbell Burgers include spinach and blueberries.  And as The Sneaky Chef puts it, this book isn't just for men, it's for anyone who wants to add some health to their every day recipes.

Starting Tuesday, May 6 we'll be reviewing the book on Ignite, looking at some of the recipes and offering our own thoughts (and asking for yours, too).  And starting this Thursday, May 1, Missy will be posting a weekly blog sharing her own thoughts.  As always, feel free to post comments and ask her questions.  Finally, we'll have another Live Chat event with Missy in early-June (stay tuned to Ignite for the official date).
