Veggie Ban

For a few months now I've been waging war against a 17 month old over veggies.  When Bea started solids she would eat anything, broccoli, no problem.  Salmon, loved it.  Then, around December of last year she started in on what is now our veggie war.  The only consistent veggie I can persuade her to eat are sweet potatoes.

So, a few months ago I started "hiding" veggies in foods in the hope that she wouldn't notice them and start eating some.  Right now smoothies are a current favorite.  The other morning I made one with blueberries, yogurt, banana, a little honey and spinach.  Thank goodness she drank it all!

I'd love to hear any ideas you might have about ways to persuade a toddler to eat her veggies!
