Tips & FAQ

Use plant-based yogurt to replace milk in sauces, applesauce to replace an egg in cakes, and gluten-free pasta to quickly adapt your dishes.

Cook on Sunday: roasted vegetables, grains and proteins ready to reheat. Label and freeze in portions to save time.

Present foods separately (sauces on the side), use fun shapes, and involve children during preparation to increase their willingness to eat.
