For the most part my kids have always been good eaters. Really, they're the kind of kids that can eat very liberally at a dessert table then turn around and eat from the veggie tray with no encouragement. They also came with some pretty refined palates if you ask me. Tanner took his first taste of raw green onions when he was only 2. He thought about it for a minute than returned to the cutting board for more. It's definitely made my life easier when it comes to cooking because they're pretty willing to try anything.

With that, these may not be thought of as the most kid-friendly recipes, but then again, maybe all kids should be encouraged to try knew things.
