healthy winter recipes for kids

Come winter and there is a plethora of seasonal vegetables to choose from. These fresh vegetables are not only yummy but are also rich in vitamins and minerals. The problem arises when you have to make your kids eat them to reap in their health benefits. This task can be more exhausting than cooking itself as kids are often fussy and do not like to eat too many veggies. But by making them kid-friendly (read yummy), you can certainly succeed in this Herculean task! Dhvani Shah, a consulting dietician and naturopathic nutritionist who has authored the book, ‘Don’t Just Feed…Nourish Your Child’, shares four such recipes.

 Spinach dip

Does your child cringe when you mention there’s spinach for dinner? If yes, you aren’t alone. Several kids (and adults too) are not too keen to eat spinach or palak. But this vegetable is a very rich source of iron and should be included in one’s diet. In order to make it tasty, try this spinach dip which kids will love. So keep the mayonnaise aside and switch to a healthy dip instead. Click here for the recipe.

Strawberry and mint lassi

Juicy, fresh strawberries are easily available in the winter season and you can make your child eat them raw or add them to milkshake and lassi. This can also be a perfect way to make the switch from soft drinks to a healthy drink. It is easy-to-make and is ready in minutes. All you need are fresh strawberries, mint leaves and yoghurt. Here’s the recipe.

Green peas waffles

Tell kids there’s waffles for breakfast and they will jump in joy. The good news is, you can make waffles in a healthy way by using ingredients such as green peas, sooji and even dals. You will need  a waffle maker but be assured that your child is eating something healthy which does not have any preservatives. Find the recipe here.
