How to get kids to eat spinach

spinach

Oh noes! I just ate spinach!

I’ve been having trouble getting my kids to eat spinach so I thought I’d try something different today. Normally I add baby spinach to sandwiches (like egg salad or salmon sandwiches) but they always pick it out. Today, I made spaghetti and threw in a bag of baby spinach while boiling the spaghetti.

After it was cooked, I tossed it with some pasta sauce and served it to my little unsuspecting kidlets.

They both ate every last morsel, spinach and all!

When they were finished, I told them they just ate a bunch of spinach. I made sure to mention that spinach makes you “big and strong like daddy” so they were perfectly happy with that.

So if you’re looking for a way to slip some spinach into your kid’s diet, try boiling it with some pasta next time.
