1. Superfood smoothies
For the best superfood smoothie,add folate-rich and fiber-rich leafy greens like spinach or kale,along with chia seeds or walnuts for plant-based omega-3 fatty acids,fiber and protein. Then throw in an avocado for healthy fats,followed by antioxidant-rich blueberries.
Adding plain,unsweetened yogurt can also increase your smoothies creaminess,protein levels and gut-healthy probiotics.
1. 超級(jí)食物制成的“奶昔”
最好的超級(jí)食物奶昔配方是菠菜或甘藍(lán)菜等富含葉酸和纖維的綠葉蔬菜以及富含歐米珈-3脂肪酸、纖維和蛋白質(zhì)的奇亞籽或核桃。你可以再放入一顆富含健康脂肪的牛油果和一些富含抗氧化素的藍(lán)莓一起攪拌。
你還可以加入無(wú)糖原味酸奶,從而提升奶昔的絲滑口感和蛋白質(zhì)含量,還能添加有益腸道健康的益生菌。
2. Homemade veggie fries
Eating a colorful variety of vegetables is so important for getting enough fiber and phytonutrients,as well as fueling both gut health and mental health.
Air fryer ovens add a crispy,crunchy texture to food without deep frying. Use it to make zucchini,carrot or green bean“fries”.
3. Homemade hummus
Legumes are healthy,plant-based sources of iron,zinc,protein and fiber,benefitting brain development.
Homemade hummus is a versatile way to incorporate legumes into your childs diet. It can be served in so many ways,such as a dip paired with apple slices,carrot sticks,thinly sliced celery or sugar snap peas.
Adding some color to your hummus can make it more appealing to kids. Think:a bright orange carrot hummus or a deep-purple beet hummus topped with a monster face made out of vegetables.
4. Salmon
Introducing your child to fish at a young age can increase their likelihood of enjoying it and eating low-fat,vitamin-rich proteins for the rest of their life.
Salmon is soft and mild enough for young children,and is also a good source of vitamin B12 and omega-3s,which promote healthy brain development and happier moods.
5. Eggs
Whole eggs are an excellent source of brain- boosting vitamins A,D and B12,along with choline. Choline is especially important for young children,as it has been shown to improve brain development and long-term memory.
One study found that pastured eggs can have twice as much vitamin E and almost three times as many omega-3s as caged eggs.
6. Meatballs
Sneak some powerful plant- based fiber and nutritious veggies into your childs diet through meatballs.
Start with a base of beans,lentils or ground turkey. Then add shredded spinach or grated zucchini.
Use flax seeds to bind the ingredients for added omega-3s and toss in your spices. Cook and serve.
2. 自制炸蔬菜
嬰幼兒飲食中包含各種五顏六色的蔬菜對(duì)于攝入足量纖維和植物營(yíng)養(yǎng)素以及促進(jìn)腸道健康和心理健康非常重要。
空氣炸鍋可以讓食物不經(jīng)油炸就能擁有酥脆口感。你可以用空氣炸鍋制作炸西葫蘆、炸胡蘿卜或炸綠豆。
3. 自制豆泥
豆類(lèi)是健康的植物性食品,可以提供鐵、鋅、蛋白質(zhì)和纖維,有益于大腦發(fā)育。
自制豆泥是讓孩子攝入各種豆類(lèi)的好方法,你可以用豆泥搭配蘋(píng)果切片、胡蘿卜條、芹菜薄片或蜜豆等多種食物。
制作顏色鮮艷的豆泥會(huì)讓孩子更有食欲。比如一份亮橙色的胡蘿卜豆泥或一份深紫色的甜菜豆泥,上面用蔬菜擺出鬼臉圖案。
4. 三文魚(yú)
從小讓孩子吃魚(yú)會(huì)讓其在長(zhǎng)大后更愛(ài)吃魚(yú)并攝入更多低脂肪和富含維生素的蛋白質(zhì)。
三文魚(yú)的柔軟清淡口感很適合幼童,同時(shí)還能提供大量維生素B12和歐米珈-3脂肪酸,不僅能促進(jìn)大腦健康發(fā)育,還能讓心情更愉悅。
5. 雞蛋
整個(gè)雞蛋是促進(jìn)大腦發(fā)育的維生素A、維生素D、維生素B12和膽堿的絕佳來(lái)源。膽堿對(duì)于幼童尤其重要,經(jīng)證明膽堿可以促進(jìn)大腦發(fā)育,增強(qiáng)長(zhǎng)期記憶力。
一項(xiàng)研究發(fā)現(xiàn),放養(yǎng)雞蛋所含的維生素E和歐米珈-3脂肪酸分別是圈養(yǎng)雞蛋的兩倍和近三倍。
6. 肉丸
你可以通過(guò)肉丸在孩子膳食中添加植物纖維和營(yíng)養(yǎng)豐富的蔬菜。
舉例而言,你可以在火雞絞肉中加入豆泥,然后再加入切碎的菠菜或磨碎的西葫蘆。
再加入一些富含歐米珈-3脂肪酸的亞麻籽并放入調(diào)味料。煮熟即可食用。
