Anyway, as I’m making it, I am arguing with myself on whether or not I am going to fight with them on eating this tonight.<\/p>\n
I force them to try everything, but I was positive they were going to hate this, and I didn’t want them to just eat 3 bites of something and then \u00a0be hungry at 7, so for the first time in a VERY long time, I gave in. \u00a0Along with this pasta, I made chicken nuggets, and caned green beans, just to make sure they were full.<\/p>\n
But they had to try this pasta first. \u00a0While making this pasta, it made more than I had expected, so I decided to take half of it and freeze it. \u00a0I didn’t want to end up with 6 helpings of a pasta that no one likes.<\/p>\n
<\/noscript><\/p>\nSo serving time comes, and everyone’s nose turns up. \u00a0I mean, this has everything that is on my kids “please don’t make me eat” list: \u00a0onions, mushrooms, spinach. \u00a0I mean, I guess I could have put beans and peas in there and done my best to really disgust them, but \u00a0I thought 3 things was really pushing it! And A LOT of each of these things! \u00a0So I give them each a small bowl, they each take a bite….and inhale it. \u00a0And ask for more. \u00a0And more. \u00a0We actually didn’t have enough. \u00a0I had a very small portion – which I will gladly give up given the fact that my kids couldn’t get enough of this!<\/p>\n
Oh, and the chicken nuggets? \u00a0They went untouched….I love my kids. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
