| TODAY WE’RE TALKING ABOUT TASTING TRAYS. MY KIDS ARE THE PICKIEST EATERS, AS YOU ALL KNOW, AND I’VE TOLD YOU ALL, BUT THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO TRY NEW THINGS. WHEN IT COMES DOWN TO DINNER TIME, AND I PUT SOMETHING NEW ON THEIR PLATE, IT THROWS THEM OFF COMPLETELY. TODAY, I’M GOING TO INTRODUCE SOMETHING I’M GOING TO TRY IN MY HOME, AND THAT’S THE TASTING TRAY. YOU USE A SIMPLE, PLAIN, ICE CUBE TRAY AND YOU JUST FILL IT UP WITH DIFFERENT TYPES OF GOODS. FRUITS, VEGETABLES, DAIRY, BREAD, ANYTHING THAT YOU WANT YOUR KIDS TO TRY, YOU JUST PUT IT IN HERE. TODAY, I’VE GOT SOME STRAWBERRIES, GRAPES, MELON, CHEERIOS, RAISIN BREAD, YOGURT RAISINS, PRETZELS, GOLDFISH. AND NOW COMES THE HARD PART, GETTING YOUR KIDS TO EAT THE VEGETABLES, SO I’VE GOT CARROTS AND PEAS. ANOTHER GREAT THING ABOUT THESE IS YOU CAN USE THEM AS A LUNCH TIME MEAL, OR YOU CAN USE THEM AS A SNACK, IF YOU’VE GOT NIBBLERS LIKE I DO, AND THEY KIND OF MUNCH ALL DAY. ANYTHING YOU WANT YOUR KIDS TO TRY, YOU JUST PUT IT IN THIS ICE CUBE TRAY AND LET THEM TRY LITTLE BY LITTLE. AND BY THE TIME TWO WEEKS ROLLS AROUND, HOPEFULLY THEY’RE USED TO TRYING NEW THINGS AND THEY DON’T GET SO INTIMIDATED WHEN YOU PUT SOMETHING NEW ON THE PLATE. |
