Vegetables That Kids Love

All too often I hear about kids that don't like vegetables at all and therefore never eat them. There's no more important food for your body and they help your brain and body on so many levels. I am a huge fan of adding vegetable and salad recipes to your rotation that kids will love. For those that are dead set against eating veggies you can start with recipes like this that have some other taste elements too (but still let the vegetable taste shine). If all goes well they'll soon be asking for vegetable dishes by name and have a new appreciation for how good they taste.
