Help with children food recipes

[Guest guest]

Hi, I am very grateful to all the info the list post in regaurds to

health and herbs. I have a question about using herbs in foods to get

children to use them and like them. I myself hate herb preps that

taste bad. So far I have found a smoothie recipe for garlic and a tea

recipe for cinnamin and clove that my children really like. Does

anyone have recipes that children love that incorporates herbs? Thanks

in advance

Some tips:

 

You can sneak herbs in anywhere. If you serve soups and use vegetable

stocks, you can add in some stingng nettle infusion to the stock.

I've made risotto before using oatstraw infusion instead of broth.

You can make instant oatmeal with tea such as chamomile or oatstraw

instead of using water. You can use herbs such as stinging nettle and

self heal on pizza or sprinkled in soups. You can mix herbs such as

dried parsley, nettle, and dill weed into creamcheese or butter. You

can also try mixing hot apple juice in with teas such as rosehips,

chamomile, oatstraw, or hops. You can use peppermint tea instead of

hotwater in hot chocolate mix. Think: where can I put this herb so no

one will notice? Ginger tastes great in anything oatmeal or apple

related. Homemade applesauce with ginger and cinnamon. You can mix

rosepetals with peanutbutter and honey. I got this trick from

rosemary gladstar- you can powder and mix herbs that don't taste good

with herbs that do (like cinnamon) and then wet the herbs slightly

with fruit concentrate and honey and use it as a spread for toast or

bread. You can probably use jam instead of fruit conserve and skip

the honey.

 

I hope I helped. I don't have kids but I like to try and find ways to

incorporate wild and dried herbs in my cooking.

 

Plus, I bet no one will notice if you make sourcream and onion dip or

something but throw something in there like stinging nettle or dried

parsley.

 

You can also try powdering herbs that are yucky and mixing them with

herbs that are tasty- mixing in some peanut butter and honey and

maybe a little powdered milk, rolling them into balls, and then

dipping them in chocolate.

 

Happy cooking.
