Not Loving Her Greens
Baby used to like veggie when she was younger and would eat just about any type of veggie. These days, she is shunning away from most of the veggie. She likes only a handful of veggie, namely leek, leek flower and 'yau mark tarm' veggie. When she was younger, she would eat raw celery, raw capsicum, brocolli and other types of veggie. Now, she will single out all these from her bowl of food.
I need to bribe and threaten Baby to eat her veggie sometimes. When she could not poo poo for a day and was refusing to eat her veggie, I took out the bottle of enema and placed it right in front of her when she was eating her lunch. She is terrified of having the enema put into her down under. But still, that did not manage to scare this hard headed Baby of mine to eat her greens, SIGH..... The only way is to chop the veggie into really really really tiny pieces... so tiny that she could just swallow them without chewing!

My victoria doesn't like her greens either, or even carrots or tomatoes. William, on the other hand, would ASK for his vege and taufu, and basically everything healthy! Hahaha... world of difference!
yup. the cook is chopping the vege n liver to really really small... or sometimes blend time to soup for philip
My boy hates the chewing part when eating his veggie and he only eats selected ones like celery, carrots, yau mak and cabbage provided they are cooked until soft and cut into small pcs. Haiz.
For my boy, he likes vege..any vege he will sapu,but not meat. He dislike eating meat.
Maybe can try doing some sort of cute bento using veggies like what some other mommy bloggers do. Maybe those cute cute food stuff can attract her to eat.
Kids will always have challenges for parents. Even if she doesn't like all vegt, encourage more fruit consumption. Local fruits are cheaper, healthier and easily available. If she enjoys fruit juices, can throw in celery/ cucumber etc to boost up vitamins and fibre.
Maybe as what you said, just chop fine the veggies or hide in your dish..
