Hi Reader -- Let's talk about πΏ green veggies - they're so nutritious! But HOW do you get your kids to eat them?!?! Over the last 15 years, I have narrowed it down to one thing you can do that works almost every single time. Offer veggies in different forms β raw, roasted, sautΓ©ed, blended β until you strike gold with something they actually like. Maybe theyβre crunchy carrot fans, or perhaps theyβll fall for sweet roasted broccoli. The key? Keep experimenting, stay patient, and make it fun. Veggies can totally be delicious β itβs just about finding the perfect match for your little one!β I've worked hard over the years to create recipes that are packed with veggies in lots of different ways for you to try with your kids.
