While children are growing up, it’s important to provide them with nourishing foods that can sustain their growth and it all starts in the kitchen.
Trying to introduce all organic recipes into your household, may not please everyone but they will surely benefit from eating them.
Just bringing in fruits and vegetables into your kitchen, sadly, is not enough. Instead, there are organic recipes that you can try to stealthily transform any fussy eater – they’ll be none the wiser.
As hard as mothers strive to cook only the best for their children, using organic ingredients for organic recipes will ensure that your little one is growing up strong and healthy.
And always remember to wash your organic vegetables and fruits thoroughly to make sure there are no pesticide residues.
Baked Avocado Fries

A great alternative to regular potato fries and definitely French fries – avocado fries will give your child the crunch they desire and the creamy goodness of the vegetable.
Avocados have been proven to protect the heart, increase brain function and aid with any inflammation in the body, control blood sugar and regulate insulin.
And baking the avocado fries removes any unnecessary oil that you might get when you fry them, leaving behind any unhealthy components and focusing on the good nutrients.
With almost 16g of fat, its best if you serve this as a side dish or a snack for your child. You can also make the same recipe but replace the avocados with sweet potato for another healthy alternative.
Ingredients:
- 2 medium sized avocados
- 1 medium sized lemon and lime
- 1 cup of panko bread crumbs
- ½ teaspoon salt – ½ teaspoon pepper
- cooking spray
Directions:
- 1. Preheat your oven to 220 C
- 2. Peel the avocados and slice them into wedge shapes
- 3. Combine lemon, lime, salt, pepper and bread crumbs in a bowl
- 4. Dip the avocados in the bowl and coat them with the mixture
- 5. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray and arrange the acovados in a single layer
- 6. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown and enjoy!
