Benefits of legumes

With the heat, do not want to eat too hot, not steaming stews or heavy meals. So the traditional lentils, beans or chickpeas are often not appropriate for more seasons ...

But vegetables can also be eaten in summer, not to lose its beneficial properties and prepare them in an engaging way for children and for the whole family.



Beans are a cornerstone of a healthy diet, and most babies begin to take them from 12 months. After two years when they eat the same as the largest (if we talk about healthy foods as there are no cases of allergies), any family making vegetable dishes.
In summer, instead of eating hot vegetables, cold dishes we test beans. Here are some examples.

Chickpea Salad. Having previously prepared vegetables boiling it down, we leave to cool. Then mix with bits of diced raw vegetables such as tomato, cucumber, carrots, peppers, corn and egg .... If you want to add some meat, better not choose sausages or meat too fatty, hard to digest, and opt for turkey tacos, chicken or ham. May also be mixed with tuna, if you like the combination, which to me seems great.

* Bean salad (kidney beans). Prepare well as before. Can be made with white beans, pinto or red delicious combinations.

* Even lentils can go well in salads, as in this recipe I brought you a while ago, a fresh and delicious dish that can be combined with various ingredients, adding vegetables to taste.

* Because they are cold, they can dress salads with a little mayonnaise, but it is healthier olive oil oil, and can give a touch of vinegar or lemon.

* Also we saw some tricks to get kids to eat vegetables in a different way, and in the form of hamburgers or croquettes, which make them very attractive in the eyes of children.

We hope that these tips to get kids to eat vegetables in summer and not lose this healthy habit in our diet you find them useful and help you to prepare delicious dishes and fresh vegetables.
