Vegetable Recipes Your Kids Will Beg For |
|
Vegetables are a great source of vitamins and minerals. The problem is that you often have to tell your kids hundreds of times to eat their vegetables and they still aren't happy about it. Almost all children seem to have an aversion to vegetables. They will kick up a fuss, cry, and push the vegetables around their plate. So which vegetable recipes work? The key is to find an interesting, creative way in which to prepare vegetables and your family is bound to love them! Do you remember when you were a child and your mother dropped a soggy green lump of cabbage on your plate. Did you want to eat it? Almost certainly not. There are various ways to encourage your children to eat their vegetables. You might even need to trick them! Broccoli is an example of a vegetable, which is high in vitamin and mineral content, and there are plenty of ways to prepare it. Here are some tips: Try it raw. Leave a plate of raw broccoli in bite-size pieces in the refrigerator for your children as a snack. Offer some salad dressing so they can dip it and this is often a hit. Leave the tips of the broccoli on the plate and encourage your child to eat them. You can even make a creative game of this. Grilled vegetable recipes are not the only way to serve healthy vegetables. Bribery - you might like to tell your child that if they finish their broccoli, there is a treat for them afterwards. Always follow up on this promise and produce the treat else they will mistrust future promises from you. Cheese - cheese and broccoli go together excellently. Adding a cheesy sauce changes the flavor and texture of the broccoli and your children might even prefer the cheesy broccoli to whatever else is on their plate. You can use cheese in vegetable soup recipes. This also works with good vegetable grill recipes. Most kids love a cheesy flavor. Lasagna - add broccoli to lasagna and smother it with sauce and cheese. Your children may not notice that it is there, and if they do, they will find it to be delicious. Chop it up - if all else fails, pre cook the broccoli and let it cool a little and put it in a food processor. Chop it up until it is not recognizable and add it to whatever dish you are cooking. Your children will not even know it is there. Shakes - make a milkshake using ice cream milk and a lot of chocolate syrup. Add the broccoli to the shake as you are blending it. The taste of the chocolate will hide the taste of the broccoli. Just make sure that the ice cream that you use has chunks of something in it, that is not hard to find in grocery stores. There are so many ways that you can get your children to eat their vegetables. It is a very important part of their nutrition.
