Who knew kids had so many opinions about when they can eat a banana? 🍌 Instead of making that mac and cheese from a blue box for the 200th meal in a row, we have some tips on how to get kids to eat healthier without the struggle. ⁣ 1. Sometimes simpler is better! A single flavor palette is often more appealing to kids- especially when paired with food they’ve already tried ⁣ 2. Incorporate veggies in subtle ways- kids may not even notice the thinly chopped or grated veggies in a pasta sauce… 🍝⁣ 3. Cooking color veggies might help kids have more an interest in eating them. Especially if they help prep! ⁣ Check out the link in bio for more! 👩‍🍳⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ .⁣ ⁣ ⁣

This delicious kale stem pesto pasta with chickpeas from our friends over at @foodwastefeast. In addition to sharing this recipe with us (check out the link in our bio), Co-founder of @meimeiboston Mei Li taught us some tips for cooking with dried beans. Cooking with dried beans is easy, versatile, and can help cut down on the amount of BPA we come into contact with from cans. A win on every count. .
