You can put the vegetables in brownies or some other kind of food. If you don't want to fight them about eating them. They have a chocolate cake with beets.








Batter:








Nonstick cooking spray


1 cup firmly packed light or dark brown sugar


1/4 cup canola or vegetable oil or trans-fat-free soft tub margarine spread


1 large egg


2 large egg whites


3 ounces semisweet or bittersweet chocolate , melted and cooled


1/2 cup beet puree


1/2 cup lowfat 1 percent buttermilk


1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract


2 cups all-purpose flour


1 teaspoon baking soda


1/4 teaspoon salt


Cream Cheese Frosting:








1 package (8 ounces) reduced-fat cream cheese


3/4 cup confectioners' sugar


1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder


1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract


Preheat the oven to 350掳. Coat a 9-inch baking pan with cooking spray.





In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the brown sugar with the oil or margarine until creamy. Add the whole egg and egg whites one at a time, beating well after each addition. Beat in the melted chocolate, beet puree, buttermilk and vanilla.





Add the flour, baking soda and salt, and beat until smooth.





Pour the batter into the pan and bake until a toothpick comes out clean when inserted into the center, 35 to 40 minutes. Let the cake cool 5 minutes in pan before turning out onto a rack to cool completely.





Meanwhile, make the frosting. Beat the cream cheese with the confectioners' sugar, cocoa powder and vanilla until smooth. Slice the cake in half horizontally. Spread the frosting over the top and between layers of the cooled cake.





Refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 4 days

to eat or prepare themselves? for snacks, they like cut up apples, celery, carrots with peanut butter. for side dishes, they can be picky, especially if the adults in the house make faces at veggies. train the man of the house to pretend to enjoy his green stuff and the kids will go for just about anything. creamed spinach is delish (add some sour cream to drained cooked spinach - use the juice for soups as it has lots of vitamins. diced zucchini with tomato and onions is easy and good.
If your kids like corn, try this recipe. It is the absolute best corn recipe I've ever tried. Not exactly healthy, though... Check out this website anyway. She's got a few nice veggie recipes and 4 kids to try them out on. :)





Edit: Here's another one!! This is carrot soup that apparently her kids just love!
As a kid I always loved eating broccoli that had a little cheese melted on it. I assume that it was steamed. My parents would call broccoli baby trees so I felt like a giant.


They also got me to eat raw carrots with ranch by telling me that it would keep my eyes (eyesight) bright.
