My kid ate a banana today 🍌 Let me just clarif

My kid ate a banana today 🍌
Let me just clarify that’s it’s her first banana in almost two years. Bananas had been the enemy for some time now- too mushy, too dry, ewww the tip is brown, the peel is slimy 🤢
It’s super hard to make a kid eat something they don’t want to eat. The more we push, the more they resist. And we all know who usually (always?) wins that battle of wills.
So I let it go. Hard as it was to find a snack as portable, filling, healthy and lunchbox friendly; I grit my teeth and stopped forcing bananas on my 7 year old.

The rest of the family continued to eat plenty of bananas though, and we never stopped offering a bite here and there. Sometimes I’d add a few slices in a fruit salad (which she wouldn’t touch), and other times I’d add them in pancake batter and on top of fruit skewers.
We stopped insisting and bribing her for “one more bite”, and started the occasional exposure by offering all the different versions of bananas we could think of without making her feel judged or pressured.

For two whole years.
Today, my kid chose to pick a banana for her snack. Her choice. All on her own.

Sometimes a child won’t like a certain food for any reason. That is okay. By offering it to them every now and then in small portions and different ways and kindly accepting their repeated refusal, we give them a chance to reevaluate that food in a relaxed atmosphere until they may eventually give it another try and even ask for more😉
So keep trying with the broccoli 🥦

There are lots of ways to make a healthier version

There are lots of ways to make a healthier version of kahk, but sometimes we may just want the real deal. A couple of kahks with a hot cup of something on Eid morning is always good for the soul.
If you find it hard to resist eating more than that, get a smaller box this year and share it with your loved ones🍪
Happy Eid❤️❤️ #kahk #eid #eidfitr #happyeid #eidfood

What I love about this jeweled rice recipe is that it’s chock full of different flavors, nutrient dense fruit & nuts, and can be made with fibre-rich whole-grain rice. Not to mention that it’s an absolutely gorgeous meal in and of itself.
