Get the kids to love their veggies!

Rachel Scott one of our Mom Squad members share how her kids eat veggies and love them! 

In my house vegetables aren’t a problem. Yes, I said it and YES its true! Every one of my children enjoys veggies and often asks for seconds. What is my secret????   Flavor.

I just don’t believe that veggies should be plane and overcooked. I believe they should have a nice crunch to them with a little flavor. I have found two great seasonings to help my children eat their veggies.

1-     Aldi’s Garlic Salt. What I love about this seasoning is that its not just a garlic salt but it has flavor. I have used many garlic salts before but some of them seemed to just be salt with a dash of garlic stuff. Not at all what I would call flavor.  I can honestly say that many times I will add olive oil and this garlic salt and that is all I need for my veggies.

2-     Knorr Chicken Bouillon- This is great for my steamed veggies. I just add olive oil, water for steaming and a little of this seasoning and the flavor is amazing.

I am no expert when it comes to cooking but I like to share what I have found to work with some of the tougher jobs (like getting kids to eat veggies). The other day my daughter opted out of everything on the dinner menu except spinach and asked for seconds. So, I think this is a secret worth sharing.

What are some ways you have found to be helpful in getting your kids to eat veggies?
