It is the ultimate problem that babies don’t like to eat green leafy vegetables. Many babies have it. The possible reasons are: ① Vegetables have a special smell; ② The cellulose is not softened enough, and the rough texture makes it difficult for babies to swallow and digest. ③ If the food traits do not meet the characteristics of the baby's development at this stage, the baby will resist; ④ The taste of animal food is indeed better than that of vegetables, and they can be combined.

Today, I used vegetable juice + creative cooking to attract the baby's attention. The vegetable puree is not filtered, and the dietary fiber is retained, which is particularly good for preventing constipation in the baby.

Steamed Dumplings with Leaves

1. Boil the spinach in hot water for 1 minute.
>>You don’t need to blanch it for a long time, just see the green water.

2. Take it out and beat 75 grams of pure milk into spinach puree, mix the spinach puree and powder.
>>The flour is added with grain flour and soybean flour, which can be omitted in order to increase the nutrient density.

3. Stir it with chopsticks into a flocculent shape and pour it on the kneading pad.

4. Knead into a smooth dough. Cover with plastic wrap and relax for 25 minutes.

5. Stir-fry the eggs with warm oil in a hot pan, mix with chopped dried tofu and lettuce, add light soy sauce, salt, and vegetable oil to taste.

6. Stir well and taste after adding seasoning.

7. Pull the flour into pieces, round and roll out, and put fillings in the middle.

8. Take another piece of dough and cover it, pinch it tightly around it, and cut out the shape of the leaf with scissors.

9. Cut some serrations, use the cut noodles to make some leaf veins, and steam in a pot on cold water for 15 minutes.

10. If the baby still doesn't accept it after repeated attempts, and is unwilling to eat, don't force it. Your baby's preferences are constantly changing. Try again after too much time, and you may be able to accept it again.

11. Eating is a natural thing. If you eat too much, you don’t have to be happy, and if you eat less, you don’t have to worry about it. Little grapefruit will say: Mom and baby don't like vegetables. I replied to him: Well, I know. Tomorrow he will tell me again: Mom, the baby likes green vegetables the most. Me: Well, then you eat more. His thoughts often change. He likes to eat meat today, and he may not like meat tomorrow. It seems that whether he likes it or not depends on his mood. No matter how he doesn't like it or says he doesn't like it, I won't pretend to him anything he doesn't like, and I don't want to strengthen his picky and anorexia concept.
