The Tonight Show's Rx For Eating Vegetables!

                   Enjoy Your Veggies This Way! 

Are you a "vegetable hater?"
Well, you're not alone, the show business folks who join 

in your hatred- Jay Leno and Whoopi Goldberg.
But, what if we told you about something that's simple and 

tasty, and might turn you into a vegetable lover to boot?

Try this...

Get a spray bottle. fill it with water and then pour in a
1/4 cup of raw or turbinado sugar, tighten the lid and then shake
the bottle.

And the next time you cook broccoli, or cauliflower or asparagus,
spray some of the water/sugar solution on them.
The light coating of sugar hides the bitter taste of the vegetables,
and won't make them overly sweet.

And when kids who tried this trick at a school in Penn. the results
were nothing short of amazing. About 95% of the kids reported liking
the vegetables and would eat them if prepared this way, all of the time.

So, if you or a member of your family is a deeply committed
vegetable hater, then maybe it's time for some sugar water.

Good Luck!

Hollywood's Rx For Feeding Finicky Kids!

                             Feed Your Finicky Kids! 

Getting kids to eat vegetables is a problem all over the
World and the wealthy and famous moms in Hollywood
are no exception. In fact, actress Jessica Alba told Katie
Couric that she cooks a few foods and places it on the
table and if the kids don't want to eat the foods, too bad.
That may seem a little harsh, but a lot of moms don't want to
spend hrs. in the kitchen cooking a lot of different dishes.

If you're having this problem, use this tip...
Come up with an appealing adjective to describe that bowl
of carrots. Say something like, eat your "X-ray" carrots,
they'll help you see better than Superman.
The more  special and interesting a food sounds
to your kids, the more likely they'll eat it.
So, are you ready to try this?

If so, here are a few foods to get you started.
Instead of
Broccoli- Call em Mighty Brocco-Trees
Hard-boiled eggs- Call em  Dinosaur eggs
Peas- Call em  Princess Peas
Cherry Tomatoes-Call em Tomato Bursts
Asparagus-Call em  Unicorn Horns
Chopped Romaine Lettuce or Kale- Call em Make you strong green drops

That's it- Helping your kids to eat their vegetables.

Good Luck!
