Dr. Chheda – 🥦 Okay so I come from an Indian background. To me, boiled vegetables without any flavour is just nasty. And so if you’re trying to feed your child, regardless of what age they are, just boiled vegetables or steamed vegetables and they say they don’t like them? Flavour it up!

Put in whatever flavouring you think that they would like. You know, Mrs. Dash makes lots of flavourings without any added sodium. Sprinkle Mrs. Dash on them. If you want a little bit of Indian flavour, some curry powder. If you want a little bit of Chinese flavour, the Chinese five spice recipe – whatever!

But flavour it up, and then you’ll notice that they’re actually eating it. Why do you think toddlers dip their vegetables in ranch? To give it a little bit of flavour.

Steamed boiled vegetables without any flavour? Hmm, not so interesting.
