There's a cookbook, 'Deceptively Delicious' by Jessica Seinfeld, which is a book of ideas and recipes designed to feed vegetables to children who reject them.

the Jessica Seinfeld book is brilliant, see if you can get a second hand copy on here if you cant find it in the shops

Ha ha! I love it. That website posting of eliehen's is awesome.
This requestreminded me of a tale by my neighbour: She bought a juicer, and juiced up carrots and pumpkin daily. Her kids thought they were having amazing orange drink. Best of luck.

kinna54, the website post is from cookessentials - it's a beaut.

Interesting that JustJuice and V8 have now got a half and half fruit and vegetable juice on the supermarket shelves.I tried a mango/carrot etc mix just for the days I'm rushing out the door and the veg/fruit combo is great - not unlike your neighbour's home-made one, I'm guessing!

oops Sorry got my names mixed there, but that is an awesome website, thank you to cookessentials. Isn't it sad how so many kids won't eat veges. I have a wee granddaughter that goes to daycare and was delighted when she brought home a photo of her eating a carrot plucked staright from the garden there.
good luck with all the vege recipes.
