In order for the dinner you prepare for your children to be balanced and nutritious, it must incorporate vitamins and minerals, good fats, quality proteins and carbohydrates - which are an important source of dietary fiber.

And of course - it should be appetizing.

We asked Shani Arad, Strauss' dietitian, how to build a dinner that will be tasty and fun, but also varied and nutritious.

Arad made us a perfect meal that every child will be happy to eat:

Vegetables and fruits

The best source of vitamins and minerals are vegetables and fruits, of course.

Surprise the children and serve the plate a plate with both vegetables and fruits, for example: cucumber, strawberry and orange.

The fruits are sweet, but they do not have to be dessert, you can serve the vegetables as baby vegetables, so even if the children did not eat vegetables at the same meal, you will eat and return them in their entirety to the refrigerator.

Eggs are an excellent source of protein and good fats, and they are also a dish that can be served in a variety of ways.

Therefore, it is not surprising that they have become the most common and beloved dinner.

Offer the child a scrambled egg, a hard-boiled egg, an omelet or an egg - any form of serving works, and there is room for creativity and even for the child to participate in the preparation work.

Danone's "My First Yogurt" is a yogurt that is especially suitable for children - the size of the cup, the texture, the taste and the addition of vitamins and minerals.

Just like us, kids love small, exciting dishes that fit the grip of their little palm.

In addition, the portion size is adjusted so that it 'occupies' only part of the meal and not the whole, so that a more varied meal can be maintained.

In terms of texture, “My First Yogurt” comes in a thick texture to allow the boy and girl to eat independently.

It also contains vitamin D supplementation and calcium.

in the field of carbohydrates, it is advisable to accustom the children to whole grains, and serve at dinner a kind of whole wheat pita or wholemeal bread, which are rich in dietary fiber.

Next to the bread, or in it, depends on what the children like - you can serve tahini, avocado or peanut butter, for the addition of good fats.
