How To Get Your Kids To Eat Vegetables
As adults, we’re all well aware of the multiple health benefits of eating fruit and vegetables and the positive impact they have on children’s development. The majority of us have grown up conscious of the World Health Organization (WHO)’s advice of eating our ‘five a day’ as a minimum. That being said, it can be very difficult to instil the importance of eating fruit and vegetables into our children, especially if they simply do not like the taste of fruit or vegetables, leaving many parents worried about how to get vegetables into their family-friendly dinners.
Over Two Thirds of Parents Feel Like 'Bad Parents' Because Their Children Don't Eat Enough Vegetables
In fact, a recent HelloFresh survey revealed that over two thirds (64%) of parents in the UK say they struggle to get their children to eat vegetables. 60% of parents surveyed admitted they feel like a 'poor parent' because their children won't eat the vegetables in family meals, and over half (54%) believed other parents are doing a better job at it.Recipe Development Manager and all-round food expert, Mimi Morley, from HelloFresh knows that it can be a tough job getting children to eat vegetables, but believes the benefits of vegetables on children’s development are worth the perseverance.

Tips and Tricks on How to Get Vegetables into Children's Diets
- Purée your vegetables: Puréed vegetables and veggie smoothies are much more digestible and something that you can introduce into your children’s diet from a very young age, getting them used to the flavour. As long as you blend the veg well, children won’t even realise what’s in the mix - which is great for adding the likes of nutrient-brimming kale, spinach and carrots. Mimi’s top tip: why not puree vegetables to make a pasta sauce, adding loads of veggies to your delicious, child-friendly pasta meal?
- Child-friendly recipes: Don’t expect your children to eat vegetables in the same way that you do. The likes of kid-friendly vegetable soup recipes, family-friendly pastas, pizzas and other child-friendly recipes are a great way of getting vegetables into your children.
- Encourage more, nag less: It can be so tempting to nag your children about eating the vegetables in family meals, but doing so could deter them from eating vegetables even further. Gentle encouragement and praise when they do try new vegetables is key.
- Get children involved: Whether it’s involving them in the preparation and making of your family meal, or asking them for creative ideas when it comes to family meal planning, children’s involvement in the process goes a long way. Who wouldn’t want to enjoy something they’d been a part of creating?
- Make eating vegetables fun: Make vegetables more engaging by talking to your children about how they’re grown, where they’ve come from and what they do to your body. If you’re in need of a little bit of help and inspiration…HelloFresh’s Veggie Superheroes are at your service!
