How to make healthy food taste good?

Being a teacher and around a lot of kids all the time, I’ve figured out how to make kids like healthy stuff. :) They will eat broccoli, carrots and other vegetables if they have a tiny bit of ranch dressing to dip it in. They don’t have to have a lot, but it makes it more fun, tastier to some people, and you still get the benefit of the vegetable. :)

You can’t really make the food taste a lot better. Everything good for you to eat doesn’t always taste yummy. Do you feel guilty after eating junk food? If you do, remember that feeling. Was is really worth it? Eat that apple, or banana, or something healthy for that matter. You’ll feel better about yourself. I don’t know if it works for you, but for me it works. I just remember bad I felt.(wasn’t related to junk food). Hope this works for you haha.

an apple or banana
