Children's holiday is a sea of sweets and fruits. But not all fruits are created equal for all children. Before purchasing a fruit basket, you should find out about the features of the children invited to the holiday, or choose the most neutral fruit that everyone can eat.
Most often, an allergic reaction can occur to the following group of fruits: kiwi, strawberries, raspberries, oranges, lemons, grapefruits. If suddenly any of the children is allergic to any fruit, you should completely abandon it. Choose for the festive table those products that can be eaten by everyone.
The healthiest fruits
Fruit is very tasty and healthy, and a beautiful presentation guarantees success. The most beneficial are bananas, apples, peaches and grapes. Apples are high in iron, vitamin C and folic acid. Bananas aid digestion and bring vitamins A and B to the child's body, as well as magnesium and phosphorus. Grapes improve kidney and heart function.
It is worth paying close attention to fruits even when the child does not eat very well. Take a closer look at the peaches. They increase appetite and help improve digestion.
Serve correctly
You can also cook and serve such healthy food in different ways. Someone prefers raw fruit, while someone loves compote or baked version.
In order for children to get the maximum vitamins, it is not necessary to subject the fruit to prolonged heat treatment, as this will reduce the benefits and minimize the content of some vitamins.
The best option is to make small desserts and serve them on separate plates for each person. There are a lot of recipes for preparing interesting fruit dishes. So, for example, you can combine apples, peaches and bananas and prepare a fruit salad, which is very good to season with natural yogurt, which will complement the beneficial properties of fruits and improve the taste of the dish.
You can simply cut the fruit into small slices, put it on a dish and place a small swan made from half an apple in the center. Better yet, offer such swans to every kid. Such a half of a healthy apple looks just amazing.
Fruit shashlik
For this dish, you can use absolutely any fruit, such as pears, apples, peaches, plums or pineapple. By the way, berries will also go well here. Small wooden skewers will come in handy.
It is better to put fruits on a stick, alternating them with each other. A combination of strawberry and pineapple can also look beautiful. You can also add chocolate to this dish. If you dip each piece in melted chocolate, then besides the "super taste" there will also be a small surprise.
Remember, food should not only be tasty, but also healthy. The best option is to eat the fruit raw. A steam bath or oven can be an alternative.
