Toddler Lunch: Day 10 (Kale Fail)

May 7, 2014 by Dana

toddlerlunch10 Yes… I attempted the unthinkable… I tried to feed my toddler KALE! I know he loves black beans, cheese, and sour cream so I thought I’d throw some baby kale chopped up underneath and he’d never notice. I suppose I forgot I was dealing with a toddler here!

The real problem might have been that he saw my lunch sitting next to his and decided mine looked better. I was eating the same thing, mine was just already spread out on a pita instead of pitas to dip in the mix. “I want that!” he said when he saw mine. So of course, he got mine and I got his. Mine did have a few bits of kale on it so I succeeded in getting him to try it, however as a “salad” he wasn’t having it! Lesson learned.


The beans I used in this are just a can of black beans, a tablespoon or two of strained tomatoes, and a sprinkle of cumin, chili powder, and adobo seasoning. My whole family loves beans like these and they are very versatile. When someone is hungry I can quickly  put together something that tastes good and is nutritious. They are also super budget friendly!

The pita is the brand Food for Life and does not contain any refined ingredients. These are just as awesome as the rest of the Food for Life products! You can’t get a better grain product!
