Feeding your picky Eater
As a mom to a soon to be four year old I have had my share of the case of the picky eater.
I actually had taken my son to a dietitian because I was so worried about his health.
But as all other moms know it is just a stage and her grew out of it.
I have some tips of how to sneak veggies into your picky eaters food i hope you enjoy these fun tips!
*Mashed Cauliflower with Potatoes they will never be able to tell the difference even if you choose to do half and half.
*Replace spaghetti with spaghetti squash I have never heard this but I have read and heard that it does work very will with little ones.
*Spinach nuggets- you can find these in the vegan section located most time in the produce section
*Meatloaf- instead of just making the regular "just meat" meatloaf you can add veggies suck as fine chopped onions and fine chopped spinach they wont even notice
*Mac and cheese- most kids are a big fan of this just boil some cauliflower and mix it in with the mac and cheese the cauliflower will change to the same color as the cheese but be sure you cute the cauliflower into small noodle size pieces so that the wont notice.
* if your kid love pasta and pasta sauce this is the best time to sneak in all kinds of well chopped veggies into the pasta sauce
*Breads-banana carrot pumpkin ....enough said
* Soups and blenders you can blend like colored veggies and add them into your kids favorite soups they will never know
*Smoothies are the best thing I never met a child that does not like fruit smoothies this is a perfect time to add a few veggies into the blender and odds are they wont even notice
*Grilled cheese is perfect because the cheese melts together and they never really see whats between the 2 slices of bread you can do a few different things with this
1. Add some Finely chopped spinach between the cheese not a lot but a few leaves
2. like my son who is not a big meat eater this is the perfect time to slip some meat into it just go to your local deli and ask for shaved meat its so thing and will just mix right in there with the cheese they might not even notice.
I Hope this picky eater tips help some of you out there with your picky eaters
