Fish and turkey are both lean, turkey is cheap, and fish is a good source of omega-3 and 'good' oils. Use marinades to add flavour or just season, spray with a little olive oil and whack under the grill. Serve with roast veggie cubes - cube carrots, celeriac, parsnip, potato, toss with olive oil and salt and pepper and roast in a hot oven for 25 minutes. Salad of mixed leaves, tomato and capsicum alongside.





Make your own burgers with lean mince, egg, breadcrumbs, and a bit of Worcestershire sauce. If you grill them on a rack, the bulk of the fat drips away, and kids love assembling their own burgers - we like cheese, pineapple, lettuce, tomato, beetroot, if you're doing it on the BBQ it's easy to chuck on sliced onion and eggs on the flatplate, and of course tomato sauce and mayonnaise (or Dijonnaise mmmm). Can also involve them in slicing cheese and tomato, tearing up lettuce, laying out various toppings on plates on the table for assembling.





Tacos are the same - get them involved in grating cheese and chopping up veg to go in them. When I was little, I way preferred soft pita pockets as the filling didn't fall out as easily and they didn't cut the corners of my mouth like taco shells.





And spaghetti and meatballs, if you grill the meatballs on a rack like the burgers so the fat drains away, can be quite healthy. Make up the meatball mix (mince, egg, breadcrumbs, minced onion and garlic, dried basil and oregano, salt and pepper) and teach them how to roll the balls. Older kids can help prepare and assemble salad to go alongside. Add extra veg into the pasta sauce - if they're a bit suspicious use the blender to smooth it all out.





Kids get a huge sense of satisfaction out of eating something they've prepared themselves - the best way to get them eating a healthy balance of foods is to get them to invest in them.Has anyone got any good food recipe's for healthy eating children?

Hi! Fish is a very heathy meat, so if they like it you can try this:





I cook salmon in two different ways that are very easy and delicious: teriyaki salmon and lemon-pepper salmon. Your recipe sounds delicious too! I might try to cook salmon your way too.





Let the salmon (defrosted) sit on teriyaki sauce OR on the lemon-pepper sauce for 30 minutes (poke the salmon w/ a fork so the sauce can go inside it). I don't prepare the sauce myself, I just buy it.





After 30 minutes sitting on the sauce of your choice I take out the excess of sauce if I have it and take it to the oven for about 25 minutes on medium-high and it is ready to eat! If you like a lot the sauce you can even pour some extra on top afterwards, but I just eat it straight out of the oven w/ no extra sauce and it just tasted really really good. On the side I eat it w/ some rice and vegetables or sometimes w/ fettuccini alfredo w/ steamed shrimp or fettuccini w/ red sauce and steamed shrimp.





I hope you enjoy it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Honestly, I never brought the word ';healthy'; or ';healthful'; into my daughter's vocabulary. I never count calories, grams of fat, etc. The only thing I am concerned with is nitrates, unnecessary perservatives, hormones, etc. This will keep your family healthy. At first it was hard, but it became easier, and now it's second nature.





Figure out what veggies they like and feed them those. The tastes will develop. For example, my daughter loves home made salsa (1 large tomato, 1/2 red onion, 1/4 green pepper, about 1/2 tsp. adobo seasoning and a little hot pepper), tomato sauce (my husband makes his own, but Newman's Own is good - no sugar added), tomato soup. The child will not let a tomato, onion, or pepper pass her lips raw.





Another thing is to sautee up zucchini, carrots, onion, pepper and a tomato until it's mushy in a little olive oil, salt and pepper. Put this in the food processor or blender. I add this to just about everything. I spread it on English muffin pizzas, toss it with egg noodles, add it to tomato soup.
I think you can try online to find some,you can choose many kinds of delicious food. here is a review of online healthy food stores, they provide you witn all kinds of healthy food, and they are very professional, you do not need to worry about do bad to your health, also much of food are very cheap, I think you can afford it.


Here is the review.

hmm - guess you might have expected the funny guys, lol - my hubby can always fill the kids up with Fishy Pie. Poach smoked haddock in milk, then use the milk to make a cheese sauce, first cooking an onion in the butter *


Lay the fish in a casserole, with some veg * eg cooked carrots, frozen peas, french beans, sweetcorn, etc. Then pour over the sauce and top with thinly sliced potatoes and a good layer of grated cheese.


Where I've put a * is where your blender comes in for disguise purposes.


Some of the family like prawns in it.


My hubby, whose recipe this is, uses a big rectangular dish and sorts the fillings into areas according to which kid likes what. The eldest is only 32....................
I would take a packaged wonton soup and add microwaved vegetables - thinly sliced carrots, broccoli stems, scallions, green beans, peas, etc. I would also stir in a beaten egg. This would get some fresh veggies and quality protein into the kids without much fat and take no time at all.
Chicken wraps, Chicken breast with salsa sauce or simply put salad and dressing on a wrap with the chicken. Make it fun by putting diffrent filings on the table and let them make their own concoctions. We call it kangaroo tea. Jump up and help yourself.
Nice to know some kids are eating healthy and parents are taking child obesity seriously, there are cook books especially for home made meals for kids, they can even help making meals with you
GET SOME WHOLEMEAL PITTAS TOAST AND SLICE IN HALF FILL WITH SCRAMBLED EGG AND SALAD AND PAIR OF WITH LIGHTLY SALTED CRISPS AND APPLEJUICE .
i used to use various books by Annabel Karmel- full of great recipes that we as a family ate too not just the kids
Try your local Netmums website; theyre pretty good for things like that.
