Chocolate Chip Spinach Muffins
Do you have a picky eater (or as I like to say, a child who is still learning to like a variety of foods)? Are you looking for ways to get green veggies into your kid’s belly? My daughter Ayla loves these muffins! I put her in charge of making them because they go quick and I can’t keep up with production. These muffins are gluten free, diary free, nutrient dense, and loaded with fiber and healthy fats from the spinach, banana, flaxseeds, and hemp seeds. Chocolate Chip Spinach Muffins make a great snack, an after dinner treat, or part of a balance breakfast with scrambled eggs.
Green Deviled Eggs
In honor of St. Patrick’s Day and Dr. Seuss’s birthday I have been having fun playing around with different ways to make foods green naturally, using veggies! We have been making a lot of rainbows with fruits and veggies this month too which is always a hit with my two girls. Who doesn’t enjoy a pretty rainbow? Make sure to check out Spinach Pancakes if you are looking for more ways to get green veggies into your kid’s belly.
Spinach Mac and Cheese
I’m always thinking of ways to add more veggies into my girl’s diet. Mac and Cheese, a popular meal amongst many kids, is a great gateway to incorporating more veggies. The green sauce makes this dish extra fun and perfect for a Saint Patrick’s Day celebration. Spinach Mac and Cheese is loaded with spinach, broccoli, peas, and shredded zucchini. I went with the green theme because it is March but there are so many possibilities! Looking for more recipes with green veggies?

Easy Roasted Root Veggies
There are many reasons why I love fall but one of them is for all the delicious, colorful, rooted veggies I can buy at the farmers markets. I make a big batch of rooted veggies every week in hopes of it lasting for several meals, but they usually go much quicker than that because my whole family loves them!
