Veg is always on parents wish lists. Understanding which veg and how to prepare it then how to introduce it is key. We teach this on our programmes and then work direct with the child.

A great learning for me today, being met with “That’s disgusting” when I presented a slight variation of a food to my adult child.

Such a brilliant evening at Munchers HQ. Love a themed dinner. Carrots - dress in orange, and each course had carrots. Carrot bhaji to start, monkfish in a curried carrot sauce and of course carrot cake to finish. Think Munchers also gained a new mascot 🥕😄 🥕

An individual therapy session in my garden room today. Putting the child on control as sauce is often overwhelming.

Love the concentration during whisking. We encourage the children to explore food from start to finish and learn how it changes.
