:: Preparation ::

   Cooking mushrooms
     Don’t cook mushrooms in aluminum pans because they’ll darken.

   Cleaning vegetables

 

   For clean, germ-free vegetables, add salt or vinegar while washing them.

  To prevent greens discoloration
     While cooking, add a pinch of salt and sugar to spinach and other leafy greens, it will prevent their discoloration.
    :: For Kids ::

   Fruit juice
     Offer children fruit juice after meals, so it doesn’t curb their appetite. Also, limit their intake to 3 or 4 ounces daily.

   More calories
   The main issue with younger children is calories (energy) not protein. However, getting them used to eating raw fruits and vegetables is important. Make sure to also offer a wide range of high-density foods like tofu, nut and seed butters, avocado, and olives.
