Just found this thread, and definitely going to give some of these great ideas a try, especially yours KerrynN thanks
I will have to get my mindset into the mode of taking the opportunity to add more veggies to a sauce when I can. I am still so new at it that I am following recipes exactly, and forgetting the power of the TMX to make "If only you knew" or "Clean out the fridge" recipes/sauces
I agree Merlin, and with a 2 and 4 year old, it is really a nice feeling when you know they have had all those nutritious veggies without the time and effort of "negotiating" and increasing the stress at dinner time.
