Vegetable help 🥦

So I know I should allow LO to choose what to eat from her plate, but she is off of vegetables lately, she won’t get broccoli (which she loved) nor any other vegetable, can you help me with ideas, recipes that your LOs love?

I saw an awesome one the other day of pureed veggies in past tubes. You could do zucchini bake and veggie muffins? My son is nearly 3, but for ages, I've mixed extra veggies in his mash potato. Could you make nuggets from scratch and mix veggies in?

@Hannah what are veggies in past tubes? Like the big big pasta that looks like big straws? All other are amazing ideas, got any proven chicken nugget that yours like?

just found this chicken nugget hidden veggie recipe on tiktok as well , going to try it out this week for my daughter ! https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTFDftnfm/

i haven’t tried these just yet but these spinach egg bites also look great and are packed with nutrients ! https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTFDfg5XE/

Could make your own pasta sauce blend vegetables in it?

I mix spinach or kale into son's ice cream pops & smoothies; basically I make a big fruit (whatever I have on hand) smoothie, throw in a handful of greens, add honey (he's almost 2 yrs) to taste & serve it up in a smoothie. Anything I don't give him as a smoothie, I pour into popsicle molds- he loves the pops & asks for them several times a day!

Mash potatoes with veggies 😋 🥕

We buy steamer bags of asparagus. Cut the tips off and give all the tips to our toddler. She eats them like candy.

@Alicia Jedivi Yeah, so I meant pasta 🤣 I'll try and find a picture of the tubes, but yeah, any veggie. Pumpkin, Zucchini, Brocolli, Avocado, Tomato, Spinach, Corn, Carrot, Sweet Potato, etc, or some combination. You could also puree them to make a pasta sauce to coat the pasta. No, no proven. Sorry.

@jes I'm also BIG on daily fruit/ veg blend smoothies 🙌 Turning them into popsicles is a great idea!
