I agree that exposing our children to a variety of tastes and textures is so important. My little one tends to get bored easily, so I try to switch up flavors and cooking methods often. Do you guys have any suggestions for savoury, healthy snacks that aren't sweet for a change?Fresh fruits as a healthy treat is a wonderful idea, especially for getting the kids to develop a taste for different flavors!

Some savoury alternatives could be homemade vegetable or fish crackers! They're a great way to sneak in some veggies and are a fun crunchy snack. Baked carrots or beetroot chips also make a delicious and nutritious substitute for regular potato chips, which has lesser nutritional value!

. Some colorful and pleasing dishes I'd recommend are fruit skewers - a rainbow of fruits threaded onto wooden sticks, or perhaps a salad with roasted vegetables. The visual appeal of those vibrant colors makes them enticing for little eyes, and they're nutritious too!

Hidden vegetables in a fruit salad sounds like a clever way to add some nutrients! Mashed pumpkins or pureed carrots could be a sneaky addition to the mix, adding a boost of vitamins without altering the flavor too much. Perhaps some grated beets or zucchini too?

Some other sneakily healthy options which could add some crunch and color include chopping up some capsicum/bell peppers or even some chopped spinach leaves, mixed in with all the fruity goodness.
If you're worried about the veggies overpowersing the fruits' flavors, I suggest going light-handed with the additions and balancing it out by adding a dash of lemon juice and a teaspoon of honey to the salad. It should be a great way to get your little one enjoying some hidden health benefits!
