VRG’s Parents and Kids Facebook Group VRG’s Parents and Kids Facebook Group is a forum for veggie parents to ask questions and share answers. Recently The Vegetarian Resource Group asked: What spices and herbs do you use to get your kids to eat their veggies? Here are some of their responses:
– My kids like to dip their veggies in something – salad dressing, hummus, or ketchup.
– Might also try Indian curries.
– Try different profiles — southwestern, Asian etc. Nutritional yeast has cheesy vibe and is much better than salty stuff.
– Garlic!
– Dr. Greger has a spice mix that I use and the kids love it.
– I find they prefer them unseasoned. Maybe a dipping sauce helps but no spices.
– I don’t need spices and herbs to get my kids to eat their veggies. They have been eating them since they ate solid foods and they like just about all of them.
– She prefers them plain but sometimes with hummus or cooked veggies with cheesy sauce or just Earth Balance spread.
