10 Delicious Kid-Friendly Recipes Packed With Hidden Vegetables!
We all know that eating fruit and vegetables is good for us but in reality it’s not always so easy to convince the kids of that!
And it can easily feel like you are going into battle every time you try to get them to eat their vegetables!!
I know that some people don’t agree with “hiding” vegetables in children’s food because it doesn’t encourage them to change their overall eating habits nor develop their tastebuds.

With this in mind, we’ve put together our Top 10 Hidden Veggie Recipes for Kids to help you try and get some veggies into your kids without a fight!

Have tried the Hidden Veg Sausage rolls and they were gobbled up by both my kids! Amazing!!! The hidden veggie tomato sauce is also one of our faves. Am going to try the mac & cheese next week.
