How can you cook vegetables to make them taste better for picky eaters?

Getting picky eaters to eat their vegetables can be a real challenge, but there are ways to make them taste better without sacrificing their nutritional value. Here are five tips for cooking vegetables that even the pickiest eaters will love:

• Roast them: Roasting vegetables brings out their natural sweetness and makes them crispy and delicious. Simply toss your vegetables with some olive oil, salt, and pepper, and roast them in the oven at 400°F for 20-30 minutes, until they're tender and caramelized.
• Sauté them: Sautéing vegetables in a little bit of butter or olive oil can bring out their flavor and make them taste more savory. You can also add some garlic or herbs for extra flavor.
• Grill them: Grilling vegetables gives them a smoky, charred flavor that's hard to resist. Brush your vegetables with some olive oil, season them with salt and pepper, and grill them over medium-high heat until they're tender and slightly charred.
• Hide them: If all else fails, try hiding your vegetables in other dishes. You can blend them into smoothies, puree them into pasta sauces, or chop them up and mix them into casseroles.
• Make them fun: Finally, try making your vegetables more fun to eat. Cut them into fun shapes or arrange them in a colorful salad. The more visually appealing your vegetables are, the more likely picky eaters are to try them.
