Healthy Breakfast for Kids
Kids can be very picky eaters, but most often breakfast foods are some of their favorites!
Ask any kid if they want cereal of pancakes for dinner, and they will likely jump for joy! But how do you make those options, healthy?
There are 3 ways to get your kids eating healthy breakfast recipes:
- Make it fun
- Hide the healthy ingredients
- Baby step
1. Make it fun
Making a healthy breakfast for kids can be done simply if you make it fun!
Be silly:
You’ve likely been to a restaurant where they make a funny face on a pancake with fruit. Often the parents are shocked to see the kid gobbling up the entire meal, and the fruit. Why? because the restaurant made the meal fun!
I love being silly with food when it comes to kids. The Breakfast Quesadilla recipe below shows just that. A quesadilla, for breakfast?! FUN!
Let them help:
Having the kids make the breakfast is also fun. You don’t need them to be handling the spatula to “make” their own breakfast!
Next time you serve pancakes, oatmeal, or yogurt for breakfast, give the kids a topping bar!
It can be as simple as a small bowl of blueberries, another small bowl with strawberries, and a third bowl with granola or their favorite cereal. get them involved, and they will be more likely to eat it!
2. Hide the healthy ingredients
Trick my kid… yes, I absolutely trick her into eating healthy! And I’m ok with that! Eventually she watches me make that favorite meal she had no idea was 90% vegetables, and doesn’t even flinch.
Chop it fine:
Chop well, or get the blender out! My Strawberry Waffles below are a perfect example. That recipe is so packed full of berries!
But when you are working with vegetables it’s even more important! If you are trying to hide vegetables in food, the best thing you can do is chop it well, or blend it.
Try the Strawberry Waffles below, and the Breakfast Quesadilla. Be sure to chop the veggies really well in the Quesadilla, they will mix well with the eggs.
3. Baby step
Kids love their cereal… and getting them away from the ingredient can be difficult. But what if you baby stepped into a healthier breakfast?
Step 1:
Add their favorite berries to their cereal. Don’t even mention it, just a little extra love this morning.
Step 2:
Swap out the milk for Greek Yogurt, give them more berries and some of the Strawberry Sauce, or Blueberry Syrup below to drizzle over. Tell them it’s a breakfast treat.
Step 3:
This one is tricky, so don’t try it on a high stress morning… Swap out the favorite cereal with an all natural granola, or a more natural version of Theis favorite cereal. (See the Organic section of the store)
All kids are different, which is why there are 3 different ways above to help you to get their eating healthier breakfasts.
Healthy breakfasts for kids don’t have to sound so daunting when you have some tricks up your sleeve!
