If your child rejects a lot of vegetables, try slipping them into food by:
- Making muffins with your child and adding pumpkin, zucchini or shredded carrots to the muffin mix
- Tucking a lettuce leaf, a tomato slice or carrot curls into sandwiches
- Adding chopped spinach or a handful of frozen vegetables to soups, noodles, spaghetti sauce or lasagne
- Adding chopped tomato or grated carrots to tuna, chicken or pasta salads
- Cooking frozen mixed vegetables according to the directions and then adding them to store-bought potato salad
- Making pizza with your child and adding chopped broccoli or spinach to frozen pizza or frozen bread dough topped with tomato sauce
- Adding chopped broccoli or extra carrots to canned or dried chicken soup
