After taking the child home, Zhang Min went straight into the kitchen and started working. It was time for her to start "flexing her muscles" again. Two hours later, I watched her take out the dishes one by one. Suddenly, a large table of dishes appeared on the dining table. It looked like a lot but the presentation was average. There were braised pork, tomato scrambled eggs, tofu and fish soup, etc. on the table. .

After serving his son a meal, Zhang Min called him to come for dinner. Usually Zhang Min waits for her husband to come back from get off work before eating together, while his son always eats alone first. When my son sat down at the dining table, he pushed away the food and muttered: I kept eating these things and got tired of them a long time ago. I might as well eat them at school!

The child fell in love with the "big pot rice" in kindergarten and refused to eat the food cooked by his own mother!

Although she was shocked by her own son, Zhang Min did not give up. Instead, she sent a message to her class teacher, hoping that she could send her a recipe from the school. The teacher replied: The meals in the school are adjusted every week, so I can only send you the ones for this week.

Zhang Min opened the picture and found that there was a reason why her son liked to eat school food:

The food was rich and diverse

Although Zhang Min was there every day It takes an hour or two to cook for the baby, but it only involves a few dishes, with almost no major changes. I usually have to be busy with other things, and I have no intention of learning new recipes. I thought I would just make do with what I can feed my children. Looking at the school meal list, there are different main dishes and side dishes every day. Even the soup and after-dinner fruits change frequently. No wonder the children like to eat at school.

Children eat together

When my son is at home, he almost always eats alone, and there is no dining atmosphere. In school, children eat together, which makes the food more delicious and lively. You really don’t have much appetite when you sit and eat alone, and you can’t help but want to escape from such an environment because of the deserted environment.

The taste is moderate

Zhang Min found that the daily intake of calories, fat, sugar, and salt was written on the meal list. When I usually cook, I always cook according to my own taste, which may be heavier. However, adults' taste buds are indeed not as sensitive as children's. Sometimes they feel that what they cook is not salty, but my son spits it out after eating it, thinking that he just doesn't like this dish.

Mom adjusted her diet, and her child fell in love with family meals

After finding out the reason, Zhang Min began to implement the "rectification plan". Within a few days, the effect was seen, and her son Not only was he willing to eat it, but he also praised the food. These are all due to the things Zhang Min did: Create a dining atmosphere: Since there were fewer opportunities for the family to eat together before, Zhang Min now eats with her son first. She also adjusted the lights in the living room to warmer ones. Colorful lighting makes the whole room look much warmer. My son is more willing to sit at the dining table and eat. Change cooking methods. In order to better suit his son's taste, Zhang Min also collected some information and changed his cooking method. Use "steaming, boiling, and stewing" more often, which not only retains the nutrition and deliciousness of the ingredients, but also reduces the greasiness, and the overall taste tends to be light. Occasionally, Zhang Min will stir-fry or stir-fry, and he will be more cautious in using oil. He will use some olive oil, which is more healthy and nutritious. Rich variety of dishes: Zhang Min first found seasonal fruits and vegetables, and matched them according to the daily nutrition intake. Seasonal fruits and vegetables are relatively fresh and cheap, which can not only keep children full but also give them a more delicious taste.

In addition, Zhang Min will also prepare the same food in different ways. When the ingredients are limited, he can also put some thought into the presentation.
