I find the whole sneaking thing horrific and it sets terrible precedence to a kid's eating habits. <br /><br />At our house, I strive for great food. I buy good veggies, I cook delicious meals. If someone doesn't want to eat...guess what? They go to bed hungry....but, guess what finds them in the morning for breakfast? Their dinner from the night before. They have to try 3 bites (swallow and stay in) before they can eat anything else. <br /><br />Research upon research has said that a kid has to try over 100 times in order to like something. One of my twins is an example of that...she just finally decided that she likes broccoli. <br /><br />My .02 cents...2 + 2+1 = 5https://www.blogger.com/profile/07741536395908531333noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-584863604663925807.post-14630498713123614132010-12-30T14:12:44.598-08:002010-12-30T14:12:44.598-08:00oh yeah, here's something my mom did a LOT for...oh yeah, here's something my mom did a LOT for us: when making a pancake batter, add carrots or beets. It will give such a fun color to it and ALSO tons of good stuff!!! we loved the different colors our pancakes had!!!Rebeca Pricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13787569893828383305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-584863604663925807.post-7276145385083656502010-12-30T14:11:41.302-08:002010-12-30T14:11:41.302-08:00THANK goodness rachel is not picky, and I think I&...THANK goodness rachel is not picky, and I think I'd suffer a lot if she was....but I already do most of these things you listed just in case in some point she decides she doesnt want this or that anymore.<br />Here at home we eat absolutely everything and I am always sneaking things inside regular other things. For example, I love soy protein (proteina de soja) but my husband is not so fan of it. I use it (the ground version) just like ground meat and if I use half meat and half soy protein, no one can even notice I used the soy protein. <br />I ALWAYS put sherreded carrots on my sauces specially bolognese sauce. Brocoli florets or carrots on rice. I cook beets with beans and it also adds lots of color to it, besides all the nutrition.<br />Juices are my favorite. Rachel loves juices too so if you tell her it's juice, she'll drink it.<br />For chicken, I open the breast like a butterfly and fill it with spinach cheese sauce (frozen spinach with cream cheese, butter, milk and cheese). DELICIOUS!!!Rebeca Pricehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13787569893828383305noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-584863604663925807.post-52407173905536674802010-12-30T13:22:25.471-08:002010-12-30T13:22:25.471-08:00Aline, that's what I do, I make my own pizza s...Aline, that's what I do, I make my own pizza sauce and put in tons of veggies in it, carrots and broccolli are my usuals and then I blend it all, so he never even knows it's there.<br /><br />Also, I started making juice with our juicer I put carrots, apples oranges, beets, today I even put spinach in it! Since it always ends up being really sweet because of the apples and oranges, and he never sees the color, he always drinks it right up. I usually give this as his mid morning snack... it fill him up and it's packed with good stuff!<br /><br />Also, I have found that the less variety I put on his plate, the more he eats. If I put too much stuff for him, he just plays with it. So I keep things simple. Grilled chicken strips and cucumber sticks. PB sandwiches and apple slices.Mama Baer | 1.2.3.4.5https://www.blogger.com/profile/17992119589004428222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-584863604663925807.post-38307082669951105312010-12-29T09:00:17.478-08:002010-12-29T09:00:17.478-08:00Okay, about the pizza thing, I just thought of ble...Okay, about the pizza thing, I just thought of blending all the vegetables with the tomato sauce and then with the cheese on top they wouldn't even notice anyway.
