Hulk Smash

March 31, 2014 by modestmunchies Leave a Comment

It’s hard to get toddlers to eat everything you want them to eat, or rather everything they need to eat. My little man is crazy into superheroes at the moment, so to get him to eat his green veggies I just put the word Hulk onto it. We now regularly eat Hulk beans (green string beans), Hulk peas, Hulk rice (a flavoured rice with added peas and broccoli) among other ‘hulk’ green veggies and then I came up with this winner…

See what it did there?

I know most kids don’t have a problem eating mash, but this one has the benefit of the spinach for colour as well as some added garlic for flavour and with a name like ‘Hulk Smash’ it’s a lot of fun for little eaters. This would be great for a superhero themed party or a great accompaniment with dinner.
