I might be stretching kid friendly here, but my kid likes cabbage soup

(shredded cabbage, meat bones and stew or other meat, tomato juice,

water, salt) and stuffed/unstuffed cabbage. You wilt cabbage by sauteeing

it about ten minutes, pour some seasoned reduced tomato sauce over that,

and let meatballs simmer on top of that. I haven't made stuffed cabbage

in a while but that involves softening cabbage leaves and wrapping them

around meatballs, bake or simmer in tomato sauce.

I just made buffalo wings, using the recipe in Lucy's Kitchen, sort of. I

pureed some onions and celery, combined with seasoning and tomato juice,

let simmer for a while, spooned over wings (will try next over chicken

pieces), and I really like them.

Take care, Fay

As somebody else wrote, I'm not sure how " kid-friendly " this is. But when we

first started out we steamed veggies (greens, carrots, whatever) then blended

them smooth with water and lots of salt--in other words a kind of homemade V8.

At first my dd wasn't crazy about it. All we asked was that she have, like, 1/8

of a glass gulped down like a vitamin or medicine.At first this was only with 1

meal a day. Gradually we increased the amount and the frequency. Now, 4 years

later, my 11yo dd happily (yes, happily) pours herself a huge glass of this with

every meal. And, as if that isn't enough, she also eats a few more veggies on

her own now.
