I hide my vegetables in my food.

I hate most vegetables. I will seriously become a three yr old at the table. So recently I started blending them up and hiding them. I make meatloaf, meatballs, other grounded meats with blended broccoli, carrots, and cauliflower. I add raw greens to my fruit smoothies. I blend cauliflower to make them look like potatoes. ( I don't eat potatoes) Just to name a few.

Does anyone else have recipes that hide vegetables? Thanks!

    I have a fantastic recipe for homemade pasta sauce (I don't like store bought sauce anymore lol...after making my own I only want homemade!) that includes pureed carrots. It says you can use pumpkin or sweet potatoes aswell but I have only used carrots. So that's an idea, I thought of pureeing spinach in pasta sauce aswell. This could probably work for pizza. Also, if you don't like beans, I have pureed kidney beans in pasta sauce aswell.

    Whatever works. I puree carrots, peas, and green beans into spaghetti sauce for my kids. That's all I've got, lol. But! Look up Jerry Seinfeld's wife's cookbook (can't remember her first name right now... Jessica maybe?) the whole cookbook is about hiding veggies in other foods to get kids to eat it.

    my hubby doesn`t eat potatoes either, in any form, even fries/chips.

    This sounds awful but it tastes lovely, boil cauliflower n carrots n red onion till they get really soft. drain the water, mash and put a little grated cheese or a couple of chesse triangles, salt n pepper.

    Don`t look at it when you are eating it cos it looks horrible, but it tastes gorgeous lol!
