Your kids turn up their noses at vegetables, but your plate of broccoli remains untouched? Stop fighting over every spoonful!
One simple secret will turn a healthy treat into a treat that will disappear from your plates in no time.
Secret Method: Crispy Vegetable Chips
Kids love crunch and bright colors over boiled veggies. Bake them in the oven until golden brown for a healthy alternative to store-bought snacks. Carrots, zucchini, and beets are a hit with their texture and flavor.
Why does this work?
The crunch is interesting and brings to mind associations with your favorite chips.
Baking preserves vitamins (A, C, K) and enhances natural sweetness.
Children eat with their hands, which makes the process fun.
Research shows that changing the presentation increases interest in vegetables in 80% of children.
Which vegetables to choose?
Carrots. Sweet, rich in beta-carotene for vision.
Zucchini. Neutral, easily accepts spices.
Beetroot. Bright, high in iron.
Sweet potato. Loaded with antioxidants, loved for its sweetness.
How to cook: step by step
Slice thinly. Use a slicer or knife - 2-3 mm thick.
Rinse and dry. Remove excess moisture with a paper towel.
Grease with oil. Olive oil will do - 1-2 tablespoons per baking sheet.
Sprinkle with spices. Salt, paprika or garlic powder - to taste.
Bake. Preheat oven to 180°C, cook for 15-20 minutes, turning halfway through.
Cool. Chips will become crispy after 5 minutes in the air.
Strengthening the effect
Serve with sauce. Mix yogurt with herbs - kids love to dip.
Give them a choice. Put out different vegetables and let them take what they like.
Make a game. Call the chips "superpower" or "dragon wings".
Result
These crispy vegetables will disappear from your plates in seconds. You'll get happy kids and a clear conscience - no yelling or pleading required.
