Who says cucumber sandwiches are only for Dukes and Duchesses? Your kids will love them, too! Spread a little cream cheese (plain or flavored) on bread and add cukes. Cherrio! It’s the perfect grab and go snack. See the Recipe
Why wait for summer? These pops are fun all year long! Use ice cube trays or individual small plastic cups. Note: the sweeter your berries, the less sugar you need. Try growing Quinault strawberries. See the Recipe
This Asian-inspired idea is so much fun to eat they’ll forget it’s healthy. Make in advance and chill. Easy for after school; pretty enough for parties. If your kids gravitate to sweets (and whose won’t?) serve with a yogurt, honey or jelly dipping sauce. See the Recipe
These crispy zucchini chips taste fried, but they’re really just breaded and baked, so they’re a healthy alternative to French fries or potato chips. Yummy at room temperature, but even better fresh from the oven! See the recipe
For lunch or after school snacks these tortillas are loaded with crunch and flavor and veggies! Make them overstuffed (as shown) or reduce the amount of veggies and roll them into tight tubes for mess-free bites. The recipe we have on the website is just an example – swap different veggies and flavors however you like. See the recipe
Don’t say the “Z” word aloud, and your veggie-adverse kids will love this frittata. Not just for breakfast, frittatas also make great snacks. You can even pop them in school lunch boxes. Simple to make, a frittata is basically an unfolded omelet you finish in the oven. See the recipe
Fun, fast, and kids can make it themselves! What could be easier? Cut veggies ahead of time, and keep them in the fridge – then kids can just open up a pita pocket, arrange veggies, add cheese, and pop in the toaster oven. See the recipe
Just one bite and these melt-in-your-mouth nutty rings glazed with maple syrup will get even your most veggie-adverse kid to like squash. The only dilemma is that adults may eat all the rings before the kids get a chance. See the recipe
Don’t let the spinach fool you, this delicious smoothie is 100% kid-friendly! The secret is to blend a sweet, mild vegetable (such as spinach or carrots) and balance with fruit (such as pears or Blueberries). Note: freeze the fruit in advance before blending. It adds a yummy frosty touch. See the Recipe
