18 Healthy Recipes with Hidden Veggies for Kids

Getting kids to eat veggies is difficult.

I’m not going to sugar coat it for you, you don’t need that. Sugar coating it will only make you feel bad that you can’t get your kids to eat veggies.

My oldest hates veggies; I’ve been feeding them to her since she was a baby. I made home made baby food for her, with fresh veggies, fruits, and rice or oats.

She still can’t stand the thought of eating veggies!

If she see’s the slightest hint of green in her smoothie, she won’t drink it. Visible veggies in her dinner, she’ll eat around them. To say the least, it’s been a struggle to get these nutrient rich foods into her.

Luckily, there are some delicious recipes, that aren’t green smoothies, that veggies can be hidden in and enjoyed by little picky eaters! Check them out below.
