We want our families to eat healthy meals, but sometimes that can be hard with picky eaters and sweet tooth-ers.
So we have compiled some under-the-radar strategies for adding some extra fruits and vegetables to the menu.
First, we are making smoothies. If green’s a color that is automatically rejected by your youngster, start with sweet, colorful ingredients like strawberries or blueberries before adding vitamin-rich veggies like spinach or kale.
Next up, we are serving spaghetti. Sauces are a great way to hide vegetables. Pureed vegetables like broccoli, zucchini, squash, carrots and bell peppers are virtually undetectable when added to spaghetti sauce and transform a bowl of pasta into a nutritional powerhouse that your family will be happy to eat.
And finally, bake them up in some sweet goods. Pureed pumpkin and sweet potato used in cakes and cupcakes recipes add moisture as well as boost their nutritional value.
Chocolate cakes can hide small amounts of dark green veggies like spinach and kale and carrot cake works so well, it doesn’t even have to hide.
