Last night for dinner I gave my daughter the left overs of the Autumn equinox dinner. She loved it!!! 1-healthy protein option, 0-evil vegan food. Order has been restored. Fortunatly for me she likes spicy food. As she was shoveling it in she was drinking her almond milk to cool her mouth. At one point she said "more milk mommy, this is spicy!". We did however have a little melt down when it came to eating all of the spinach. She ate most of it, but wanted help. Did your arm break or is the grossness of the spinach just too much for you little hand to take?! Whatever her reasoning, I succumbed to helping her because I wanted her to eat it.
Kids will actually eat things that most grown ups turn their noses up at. The way to do it is to mix the new food in with something you know they like. As time goes by you lessen the ratio of food they like to the new food. Children often want what the grown ups have, so eat your vegetable and your children will too!
