🍊 I’m all about food exposure and introducing new foods to my kids’ palettes that they normally wouldn’t try on their own.
🫚 Did you know it takes kids about 10-20 times of repeated food exposure before they’re even interested in trying the new food?
🍌 We explored new fruits in honor of the holiday Tu B’Shevat, the Jewish celebration of the trees (think of it like Earth Day), and the kids made it clear they weren’t fans of banana chips, apricots, figs, or dates. So guess what?? We made chocolate bark with these exact fruits so they can learn to like them. And guess what? I’ll keep exposing them to these fruits over, and over again.
🍫 This trail mix chocolate bark tastes like my favorite fruit and nut bar of my childhood (Cadbury’s used to be my fave!) but with much cleaner ingredients and nothing artificial.
