Welcome to Food for Picky Kids

 FOOD FOR PICKY KIDS is a platform for desperate parents and people who love creative cooking. If your child doesn't eat vegetables and you are very worried, this is your perfect place to get inspired. The beautiful colours, the interesting and funny shapes might be a great solution for you as it is for me. I would love to say that all my hard work has been a great success, but who am I kidding? I have great days and bad days as all mums. My Monkey loves some of my new dishes and some ....well... I love them, so no problem there. The great thing about my creative cooking is the idea of trying new things, new colours , new taste bringing more variety in my Monkey's diet.

Avocado Choco Mousse

I don’t know about other kids, but my Monkey would never touch avocado. I thought of using things she likes to hide the ones she doesn’t. Using avocado with chocolate cream, in general, seems like a fantastic idea.

Yellowish-greenish delicious sausage rolls fascinated My Monkey immediately.It was love at first sight. She loved it. I wanted to use only five hotdogs, and she ate all of them on the same day. The colour combination is so beautiful that it is impossible not to get "the eyes on it."

About me

 

Hello there ,

I'm Gi.

I'm a "lucky " mum with a very  picky-eater kid.
That kind of kid that doesn't want to touch vegetables, and everything is yucky ! I’ve racked my brain and I’ ve found some solutions.It works pretty well, most of the time. Let's say that I do have moments......I rather not talk about those.Hahahaha!

I started using the dough as a "hiding " place for vegetables. And with a funny ,new and colourful presentation I successfully "charmed " my Monkey. She loves the new ideas ,the colours and she get's curious about what new things I'll gonna cook.

I hope this blog inspires other worried mums.

Many thanks for your time !
