Summary

My child goes to the best daycare in Gaur City Greater Noida. I, being a young working mother was always worried about what to pack for lunch in a short time and still be full of healthy values. I was relieved when my college said he has the same issue. I found my solution in a parent’s teachers meeting organized by my child’s daycare along with their preschool franchise in Gaur City, Greater Noida. To my surprise, I found out a whole lot of parents, who have the same issue. The meeting helped us in looking over to new recipes for making quick and healthy snacks. Some of the renowned play school franchise in Gaur City, Greater Noida also came up with similar meetings which are a good sign. Basically, spread the word as I have tried through this article.

Children are God’s gifts! True, absolutely true. But sometimes the parents actually have to bring out genies from the lamp to make them eat. It could have been exactly gift-like if these little balls of joy were ready to eat everything on our commands. (They actually do nothing on our commands, just a nice way of feeling authority though. I stand to agree on behalf of all young parents.) Making kids to eat healthy and nutritious things is a whole lot of strategic planning. Sometimes covering the green vegetables carefully wrapped under layers of chocolate or putting little bounties on head of these things. Just any way to make our child eat healthily. But what if turned the strategy around with a pinch of creativity? Come on, have you looked on the creative skills of your child, playing with clay, drawing two stick legged humans, the stars with glitters, and the rain with cotton, their oration skills shining through a dramatic Mary had a little lamb and the list is yet not short of things to read. When these little munchkins are working this hard, you also need to step up your game. I can help with your cooking-easy-yet-amazing dishes with ideas. The rest, you have to wear the chef cap and get your game out.

Eye-catching salads

The picture of salads is closest to adults looking for a healthy diet often the ones trying to lose weight. But these green looking salads (this picture is derived from the diet plans and likewise commercials) are not just meant for adults. Salads will open a lot of possible options through which your child will definitely choose to munch on. The most common, easiest to make, and loaded with nutrition are fruit salads. Just chop fresh fruits, mix them in a bowl and you are good to go. By adding ingredients like honey, the nutritional value of these salads will pop up. In summers, you can cool the fruits and kill two birds with a stone, beat the heat and take the health. For the best outcomes, plant fruits in your garden. Well, if you can invest your time there, try to buy organic fruits. Vegetable salads are a great option too, you need some fresh green leafy vegetable, chop them, add fresh tomatoes or cherries, a bit of seasoning (add the favorite flavors loved by your kid), and a dash of olive oil, the salad is ready.   

Delicious stuffed veggies

Stuffed veggies sound like a lot of work. It is, only if you are preparing a seven-course meal. Otherwise, stuffed veggies can be easily prepared as a healthy snack for kids. The stuffing does need to be necessarily a conventional option, instead you can explore options and fit in anything, the only option being they are packed with nutrition. I like to add meat stuffing in capsicums with loaded cheese for my five-year-old son, he leaves no scraps. Ingredients like cheese, different vegetables, rice, and noodles all can be worked. You can even play with the vegetable, which is to be stuffed, you can use potato, tomatoes, or even fresh bread for a change.

Favorite pasta

Do not question my credentials with this category, I will walk you through how pasta can be a quick and healthy snack for kids. First thing, either buy certified nutritional readymade pasta or make your own pasta at home (making pasta is actually easy, it adds a whole new freshness to the snack, you can store it for quick cooking as well). Now, cooking pasta as a healthy option for kids does not imitate the junk food label. In fact, pasta started as a part of the healthy diet, initially. When cooking pasta, use homemade sauce and skip the market seasoning. Add fresh herbs and light seasoning with the use of olive oil.
