I’m a firm believer in getting kids into help out in the kitchen asap. I’ve managed to pretty much burn all of my pans now – oops! So I’m in need of a new set.

It really is about presenting them with the same dish over and over until they get used to it and always trying new things. It’s too easy to let them get stuck eating the same few things over and over.

Thanks Gillian, yes sadly families don’t seem to eat together as much these days which is a huge shame.

Thanks Eb yes talking about nutrients is also important, so many kids have poor diets these days and schools are not teaching proper Home Economics anymore so they a missing out.

I do think cooking with children, involving them in planning meals and making meals a fun family affair is the key. I want to bring my kids up, not just to be unfussy, but to be passionate foodies too! We use mealtimes to talk about food and flavour and what all the different nutrients do for our bodies. They are at a great age: 6 & 8, where they are like little sponges and love learning about food and cooking it! Thanks for including my fajitas 🙂 Eb x

Your points are all spot on. Happy to hear some families still value eating together, it seems to be a dying tradition. We always eat together with our kids, maybe it’s because it’s how we were brought up! As a child I remember a lot of my friends would eat TV dinners, but they always loved coming to my house for a proper home cooked meal by my Mum.

Thanks Becky. Blue cheese just turns my stomach, you may as well ask me to eat the mould off some rotting food because that’s what it tastes like raw to me. I’m only just coming round to capers and anchovies gradually!

That’s fab Helen, yes we’ve always eaten together and that’s what I grew up with too. I think my son got a taste for curry from his organic jars of baby food:-)

I also think it’s really important to eat with your kids, and that they eat the same things you do. We’ve always done family mealtimes and it makes a huge difference. I remember once when my daughter was tiny, I’d made us a curry, and thinking it would be too spicy for her, I’d cooked up some of the same vegetables without the sauce. Well, she immediately noticed that she had something different from us and wouldn’t give up until she got the curry too!!

I definitely think you are missing out by not eating blue cheese but it’s definitely an acquired taste. I started out having it melted with crushed potatoes – which is so good and now I can eat chunks of it on its own..not always a good thing!

These look really top notch. PS thanks for including my peanut stew.

As an ex-social worker, it appalls me to see what is happening in places like the UK and US in regards to children’s diets. Most children’s menus only include hamburgers, chicken nuggets and mac and cheese nowadays, which are terrible choices overall. I hope lots of families are inspired to do a bit more cooking at home after seeing this.

Love your tips on getting kids to eat, and especially the one about getting kids involved in cooking. Of course, the kitchen needs to have some basic tools and most importantly is cookware. Sharing this everywhere I can! Great job!
