Try out these tips for sneaking more fresh veggies into meals by:

• Substituting finely chopped mushrooms for some of the ground beef in your recipe;
• Shredding mild squash (like zucchini or summer squash) into a casserole;
• Mashing cooked cauliflower in with your potatoes. They can even boil together; (Note: mashed cauliflower is a bit wetter than potato so you may want to add less liquid to your mash)
• Hiding pureed sweet potato for extra nutrition in your burger recipe; (Note: make it quick by piercing and microwaving the veggie in under ten minutes)
• Sneaking some pureed avocado into chocolate pudding;
• Adding shredded carrots or zucchini to bran muffins;
• Disguising butternut squash by mixing some puree into the cheese sauce for your macaroni; or
• Serving ketchup up as a dip with some pureed sweet potato mixed in.
