hiding veggies

do you hide veggies for your LO?

O refuses veggies 99% of the time, even purees these days when previously that was the only way he would eat them. I puree cauliflower and put in his mac n cheese, but what else can I do like that? He won't eat it if he sees it. Oh he won't eat meat either, but I figure I will work on the veggies first.

Re: hiding veggies

  • Pur?e veggies into quesadillas, mashed potatoes uhhhhh...

    Have you tried smoothies? What about soup? 

    My O loved to dip food, so ketchup, ranch, BBQ sauce, mustard are all hits when trying to get her to eat meats. She just recently decided she hates veggie/fruit pouches and will squeeze them all over the place.  Has started eating veggies, last night I slow cooked a whole chicken with carrots and potato and she devoured those carrots. She loves brown sugar carrots and also bacon green beans. Olivia loves soup when I let her drink the broth from her bowl instead if a straw.

    Have you tried the refillable pouches?nbsp; When W was going through this, I found that as long as he couldn't see it, he'd eat it, especially in pouch form because he loves pouches.nbsp; I'd just make sure there was enough fruit in it that it tasted more like fruit than veggies and he loved them.nbsp; Also, sneaking purees into pancakes is a great option.


    Ooo he loves pancakes! You think any purer will work? He wont go near a pouch lately, when 2 weeks ago he was all about them

  • tried smoothies and he hates it. Will only drink water from a straw.

    I am going to try mashed potatoes, he will usually eat those lately. And I guess more ketchup on things. He will just suck ketchup off and re-dip but worth a shot.

    He wouldn't eat the carrots from my moms chicken soup today, and I tried the brown sugar trick but it didn't work. Never heard of this bacon green bean idea, but sounds like I will try it! Thanks!!

  • Chicken pot pies worked for me, along with quesadillas. J is a stinker though, so I feel your pain.
