Teaching your kids how to eat healthy is tricky.
One thing we always do is, always have greens on the table. There are always vegetables with dinner or lunch. There's always some kind of vegetable on the table.
Here's the trick that worked. It's unbelievable how this worked. This, again, came from my brilliant wife. She started to put out the vegetables about a half an hour before dinner. In other words, broccoli, carrots, whatever. We stuck in on the table as we were doing things, before we sit down. They gulp it down. They will eat all of it.
Then, at table, I always make them eat one green, even if they don't want it. If its beans, I make them eat one bean. You don't have to eat 20 broccoli, just one. The trick is to eat the vegetables before the dinner. They'll eat it. It's a fabulous trick.
