Some of the most common challenges I continue to hear from vegan parents like yourself is how to feed, what to cook, and what foods to focus on for your vegan picky eater.
In today’s episode, we discuss a common feeding practice to “get” picky eaters to eat a particular food they’re avoiding or refusing to eat—hiding foods in mixed or prepared dishes. I share my honest thoughts about this feeding practice and what you can do instead to help your picky eater broaden their food acceptance. I’ll also share why chia seeds are a great daily use for supporting the growth of your vegan picky eaters.
Here’s what we cover:
>> A recap of my own experience with picky eating with my oldest daughter

>> Why hiding foods for your picky eater is a disservice to their feeding journey
>> How hiding foods can make picky eating behaviors worse
