PICKY EATER?



Here's your healthy tip for the week........This is a great snack or substitute if you have a kid who's picky about their veggies. The kids think it's hilarious to see the soybeans "pop" out of the pods (especially if you add sound effects) and they are an awesome source of protein and just healthy all the way around. Even if YOU don't like them, your kids might. Nate likes all kinds of food that I don't (cottage cheese and olives for one). He pops these things like Cheerios.

I found a gianormous 6lb box at Costco for $7.99. They're in individual containers that you keep in the freezer and pull out to defrost when you want to eat them. You usually eat them cold so they're a cool snack during those hot summer days.

What a great idea- I have a bag in my freezer. Grace has decided that vegetables are "not her thing".
