We discuss the role effective field theory plays in making predictions in nuclear physics in an approach that combines both the high sophistication of the standard nuclear many-body approach and the power of systematic higher chiral-order account in chiral perturbation theory. The main idea of this approach is illustrated with a selected number of cases involving few-body systems, the measurement of some of which poses an experimental challenge and will be of value to solar neutrino studies.
