[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, I feel like as a parent my thinking has kind of evolved from: Go for what will cause them to eat the most volume. For example, my kids consistently liked romaine with caesar dressing when they were little, so I served it multiple times a week. Research and find what is the very most nutrition. So, I switched our salads from romaine to spinach (we have our limits and no one in our family likes raw kale). Variety is what's important, so I buy mixed greens! [b]Which is right? Who knows?[/b] [/quote] But we do know what is right... variety. So you should have spinach salad, and romaine salad, AND mixed green salad during the week. Vary your salad toppings, vary your side of vegetables, vary your fruits. We usually eat fruit with every single meal. We add vegetables to all sorts of dishes -- scrambled eggs, nachos, pastas, burgers, sandwiches, etc.[/quote]
