DECEPTIVELY DELICIOUS EATING FOR KIDS!!



CHOCOLATE CAKE with Beets
CHICKEN NUGGETS with Broccoli
MASHED POTATOES with Cauliflower
BROWNIES with Spinach & Carrot






This summer, I saw a young lady on the Oprah show discussing how to get kids to eat VEGGIES without a fuss. This caught my eye and I listened. On the show, she visited a group of students at a school and feed them mac and cheese with butternut squash and they LOVED it. They could not taste the veggies at all. IT WORKED!!!!

Jessica Seinfeld, wife of comedian Jerry Seinfeld and mother of three young children, does this for her family. She puree vegetables and fruits into her meals. The kids are enjoying it without any whining. The pureeing process is simple, she says. First, you peel and chop your vegetable. Then, you toss it into the steamer. Once it's steamed and softened, you throw it in the food processor to puree. Then, when she's ready to cook, she snips off a corner of the plastic bag and adds some into everything she makes.
