I love trying new products, love love love it. My husband and I have been trying new products as soon as we possible can since we’ve known each other. If something has a new package or is just marketed as new we try it. Veggies included!
When it comes to the veggies department, it falls more on my shoulders to get the family to try it than my husband, he’s more of a fruit person than me. I’ve tried quite a few different brands of veggies and well I always come back to Birds Eye veggies. They have a consistent quality and with their steam fresh packages it makes my life easy.
Did you know that only 6% of Americans get the recommended daily servings of vegetables.
Because of that and with it being the new year and all I’ve been trying to incorporate even more veggies into our diets. So we’re eating veggies left and right. Frozen peas, Frozen Green Beans, Frozen Mixed veggies, and even Frozen Rice with veggies has been known to make an appearance on our table at night. Do my kids eat all their veggies, NO WAY!
Do they always try them?
NO WAY!
Do I keep giving them veggies every night.
YES
We live by the rule, you eat what mommy made or you don’t eat. If you don’t eat your veggies, you can’t have seconds.
This works for us. I’m not saying it will work for everyone but it’s worth a try if you have issues getting your kids to eat veggies, but if you want even more advice you might want to check out the book, No Whine with Dinner 150 healthy, kid-tested recipes from the Meal Makeover Moms.
P.S. Proclaim your love of veggies!

I incorporate veggies by making more than one so everyone can choose! I also make things like quiche and stir fry, both of which are loaded with vegetables

I serve several vegetables. I’m open to suggestions for everyone’s favorite. I have always encouraged our children to eat vegetables from a young age. I am always looking and trying new recipes.

I buy lots of frozen vegetables and have them available daily. I also add vegetables to many dishes, such as spaghetti, and I often add canne vegetables to dishes as well.
