My kids do not eat vegetables, can you help?

Them not eating vegetables at school you really can't work on but I know that one thing I've learned while working with kids is to provide the vegetables first and give them the foods they really like a lot a few minutes after you give them their veggies. It works well if they're pretty hungry because they're more willing to eat what is on their plate while hungry than to wait for what they really want. Also, giving them refills on drinks during dinner shouldn't happen right away. If you wait until after they've eaten more food on their plate the drinks won't fill them up.

Hide veggies in your kid's favorite foods. Deceptively Delicious is a cookbook that tells you how. Veggies go under cover in there even in cookies.

You could check out that Jessica Seinfeld book. I forgot the name of it, but it should be in the library. it's got all sorts of recipies for disguisng recipies that contain vegetables. I might check out that book also, becaue i'm sure making chocolate chip cookies with chick pes is going to be less fatttening than the traditional recipie.

It sounds like you have to play a little game called hide and seek. My mom did this to me when I didn't eat my veggies as a child. She would bake the vegetables in with the food. The easiest way to do it is by mixing it with meat. The flavor of the meat will sometimes overpower the veggies. If not you can puree the vegetables and then serve it as a sauce on top of the meat. Or you can blend fruits and veggies into drinks and smoothies.

My son has the same problem. Whenever I cook I have to make a separate dish. Worst still, my hubby likes vegetables a lot. Can you imagine how difficult it is? I have to cook different dishes to please them? May be you can try this method. First, boil the vegetables of your choice eg. tomato, carrot, etc. Add a little salt and pepper. If you like add a little meat or prawns to make itu tasty. Put them in a blender and blend until it forms a gravy. Then you can pour the gravy onto the boil potatoes or grill meat...

same isuues here also i tried hard to make them eat vegetables sometimes i have to be harh on them too.yes u r right they want to remain hungry instead of eating vegetables.the best way is to present the vegetable in a tempting wyas decotrate them try to tell stories abt vegetable then they will try toeat them i tried that and really its working

I saw a show a couple of months ago that featured a woman who had figured out how to puree vegetables and use them in her cooking so that her children got vegetables without actually knowing it. I do not remember her name, but she had a cookbook out explaining how she did it and with lots of recipes.

Hi If you give vegetables as such and insist the children to eat them, they won't accept. You can mix up the finely choped vegetables with other food, for example rice or fried rice, noodles etc. When you prepare this you can add a variety of chopped vegitables in it. If they like sandwitch or burger, you can include vegetables with other fillings. Prepare side dishes with vegetables and add their favourite flavour. In our place we eat rice as the main food and there should be a few side dishes and most of the ingredients of these dishes are veg. If you prepare omlet or scrambled egg, you can add finely chopped onions, tomato, capsicum etc..

Just don't overcook them. Also I suggest that you involve your kids in making your meals so they would be able to appreciate more the vegetables you serve them. I don't know if this still exists but there is such a thing as a chocolate carrot wherein chocolate has carrot bits in it. If that doesn't work you could still go for the carrot cake. It's good to teach kids to eat veggies while they're still young so that they'll grow healthy.
