[quote=Anonymous]I'm very sympathetic. One idea is to go to the farmers market this summer-there's usually someone with a wide range of greens that will let you sample them. It's sort of fun like a frozen yogurt shop. We did this and my DD decided that pea shoots were not terrible. So we used that as a gateway green. I personally think romaine and iceberg lettuce taste awful, so don't blame any kid for not wanting to eat them. Some of the other weirder greens actually have a better flavor. She also will eat broccoli lightly steamed with butter, Parmesan and a squeeze of lemon; green smoothies with a ton of lightly steamed baby spinach, yogurt, banana and mango; certain brands of frozen peas. Things that I think my kids should like but they don't: shredded broccoli/ramen salad; roasted Brussels sprouts with maple mustard sauce; homemade kale chips; beet/carrot fried pancakes (like latkes but with beets and carrots).
