Just a Little Green from Noodle Soup Children

When my children were small they divided vegetables into two categories. 
Good and tasty like carrots and potatoes and yucky like broccoli and cauliflower.
The trick was to somehow transfer the "yucky" vegetables to the tasty side. One method that was successful was to replace something not so healthy with something nutritious.This bate and switch worked well when replacing bread crumbs with broccoli. My children loved pasta topped with toasted bread crumbs but when I replaced it with "broccoli" crumbs they loved it just as much. I simply disguised the broccoli to look like bread crumbs and soon they became part of the "tasty" team.

You will soon have broccoli converts in your home.
