What should kids eat at dinner for healthy eating?


For healthy eating of children, it is absolutely necessary to consume each of the four food groups at dinner.

  • 1-Milk Group
  • 2-Meat, Egg, Dry Legume Group
  • 3-Vegetable and Fruit Group
  • 4-Bread and Grain Group

If meat is consumed in the dinner, it must be made suitable for the child's eating habits.

Meals should be adapted to the wishes of the child according to their age.

Cooking by frying method should never be used in terms of healthy feeding of children.

Meat should be cooked using healthy methods such as grilling, boiling or baking instead of cooking with frying.

If you are consuming meat at dinner, it is a good idea to consume rich raw vegetables in terms of vitamin c, which increases iron absorption.

At the same time, there must be absolutely nutrients from the vegetable group.

Vegetables are unfortunately not so popular with children, so besides yoghurt, cacık and ayran, it is easier for children to eat vegetables with the dairy group.

Other than that, full wheat pasta, bulgur pilaf and soup are dinner choices for children but should not be consumed very often.
