What are the best ways to get my kids to eat their vegetables?
assistant
1. Start by offering a variety of different vegetables, and let your children pick out what they want to try.
2. Make sure the vegetables you're serving are prepared in a way that your children will find appealing. For example, steaming or roasting vegetables can make them more palatable.
3. Try incorporating vegetables into other foods they already enjoy eating. For example, puree cooked vegetables and mix it with mashed potatoes for a delicious mash.
4. Serve small portions of vegetables alongside other food items. This will help your children learn to appreciate vegetables on their own terms.
5. Encourage your children to taste-test vegetables before they decide whether or not they like them.
6. Let your children know why eating vegetables is important for their health.
