a few of the kids i cook for are not fond of vegetables. at all. except for green beans. i will say though, they are starting to come around. i think in the beginning i was preparing vegetables the way i like to eat them. not how they like them. i prefer a crisp vegetable, they prefer a softer vegetable. to each is own. i also like a drizzle of olive oil, some garlic or shallots, red pepper flakes, nutmeg, etc. they don't. so, how can i get these guys to eat their vegetables? they are still growing after all, and it just bothered me so that they were pushing them aside. (don't know why it bothered me, it just did. eat your veggies!). well, i found the answer... cheese! who the heck doesn't like a cheese sauce over some broccoli or cauliflower? who, i ask? well, these guys gobbled it up. i roasted some cauliflower in the oven at 425 degrees for about 20-25 minutes. while that was happening, i shredded some cheddar cheese and blended it with some fat free milk in a sauce pan until the cheese melted. it is a very thin consistency, so don't think your are going to have a velveeta processed cheese sauce here. very little cheese sauce is needed to do the trick. i figure that having some cheese on top of their vegetables is better than not having any veggies at all. amen.
