Hidden Vegetable Recipes

It is easy to serve meals with hidden vegetable recipes but I also like to serve vegetables plain and visible for the kids to see.

However, I don't see anything wrong with adding pureed, grated or hidden vegetables in what I cook for added nutrition. The combination of the two makes for healthy kids meals.


You can prepare vegetable purees for the freezer easily. Steam your vegetables and puree in the blender. Pour into small containers and freeze. Some great vegetables that work well are:

• cauliflower
• broccoli
• spinach
• carrots
• onions
• pumpkin
• zucchini

I love to add vegetables in soups and ground hamburger among other places. Once the hamburger is cooked it blends well and adds a lot of flavor to the meat. I don't always follow a recipe when adding vegetables I just use whatever I have on hand.

I added pureed broccoli, carrots, zucchini and onions to the hamburger in this picture. Adding more vegetables to your favorite recipes is a great addition to healthy meal planning.
