Spinach is packed full on beta carotene, lutein, thiamine, riboflavin, and much much more!Spinach is so good for you that you should even give it to infants. It is rich in protein, vitaminsand mineral, and phytonutrients resulting in proportionate development in their growing stages.As good for you as spinach is kids, that doesn't matter to kids.

Either out of our garden or organically from the grocery store. I've incorporated some ways to sneak it into my children's food.1. I layer it on pizza with tomatoes, garlic, and cheese2. I add it to pasta dishes like their favrite mac and cheese or linguinie alfredo3. Instead of lettuce I'll use spinach for their sandwiches.4. I put it in their soups along with many other veggies.5. I make small salads out of it, adding their favorite fruits6. Just tell them they can be strong like Popeye (but then you need to explain who he is lol)
