While I want to get the sneaky chef children will eat stuff that taste good. Adding fresh veggies and whole grains as a side and eating them myself will have more of an impact. I think adding is just a treat, but make sure it's well ground.

My mom used to hide carrots in her pizza sauce but she did not do it very well. It just made me hate carrots a veggie I used to love. I now love carrots again. I realised I just like raw better than cooked.

I have to agree that sneaking in veggies isn't the way to get kids to like veggies. Setting an example by eating vegetables is best. Keep putting those types of food in front of the kids.

I think people are making too big a deal about this. My parents used to disguise medicine to get me to take it. Kids are not going to like everything that is good for them, so get it in how you can while you can. They'll probably get an appreciation for the taste.
