For the Picky Eaters Out there.


Moms will have a tough time feeding the picky eaters.. Kids love variety , colours, shapes etc.. So at my home these are some tricks to put in the vegetables without any fight. Dont panic seeing the colours.. Its all from the vegetables..
You can puree the vegetables and add them to dosas,chapathis and rice. A few of them I will add below. You can try out any combination coming into your imagination.


Green Dosa

Dosa batter &
Green leaves of any kind.




Clean and rough chop the greens. Saute in a pan for a couple of minutes with a pinch of salt and turmeric. You dont have to add any oil.
Grind it well and mix into the dosa batter. Make dosas and serve!!!







Beetroot Chapathi

Atta
Beetroot

Clean and cut beetroot into cubes. Cook it by adding water and a pinch of salt and turmeric.
Grind them and add it to atta. Knead chapathi dough as usual; adding more water if required.
Roll out and make chapathis as usual. Enjoy with your favourite curry.












Beetroot rice

Rice - 1 cup
Beetroot - 1 medium size
curry powder - 1 tsp
garam masala - 1/2 tsp
curry leaves
coriander leaves
mustard
salt
oil


Clean and cut the beetroot into cubes and cook them with a little water.
In a pressure cooker, add a little oil, splutter mustard and curry leaves.
Add the beetroot puree, curry powder and garam masala and saute for a couple of minutes.
Add washed and soaked rice. Add about 2 1/2 to 3 cups of water and salt.
Pressure cook till rice is done. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves.
Ready!!!
