Picky Toddlers and Eating Vegetables

Toddlers can be so picky and they go through phases where they may refuse to eat certain vegetables or fruits. Just yesterday, Jennifer and I were just brainstorming new ways to sneak veggies into our children’s diet.

One surefire method that works with Julienne is hiding loads of healthy goodies inside some type of sauce.

Spinach Pesto with Flaxseed & Walnuts

Kid-Friendly Spinach Pesto

With all this in mind, I looked around the house and came up with this easy pesto recipe using up the spinach we had in the freezer. I also added flax seeds (semi di lino), the little powerhouse seed that is full of fiber & omega-3.

If you don’t have flax seeds or would like to omit them from the recipe, just substitute them with walnuts.

Toddler Approved Pasta

The pasta came out delicious and as you can see Julienne gobbled it all up. I think we have a winner folks!
