So my little guys don't enjoy veggies (big surprise I know).
So I decided to try out the tried and sometimes true method of sneaking them in. In this case it worked. Yay!
Here is the quick and easy way I managed this oh so hard meal (note the sarcasm).
What you need:
And a blender of some kind. |
While water is heating up to cook pasta, I like to put my broccoli in the microwave in my veggie steamer (but steaming on stove works too).
I gather a mixing bowl, whisk, alfredo sauce, sour cream, and any other spices I feel like using.
Then I break up the mini dispute the boys have invariably started.
Take steamed broccoli and puree smooth.
Combine: broccoli, alfredo sauce, sour cream, and spices. Whisk smooth. If needed add some milk to thin out.
Add to pasta. And test out on the critics.
And it's a hit! They don't suspect a thing.
Whoohoo!!!
Hopefully there will be more sneaky food items to come =)
*Side note: We do try to have boys eat veggies on their own, without tricking them. This is to make up for the times when they won't eat them.
