Believe it or not, my otherwise food-wise fussy four-year-old, loves Spinach! It's a good thing too since getting him to eat most other veggies is a struggle. While there are a few that I just let him "see and eat" whether he likes them or not, I am also constantly trying to think up ways to sneak others into his food... you've got to pick your battles.

Anyway, talking of spinach, it's in season right now and in my opinion, nothing beats fresh, seasonal produce. All of these spinach dishes are really yummy and so easy to make, you've got to try them:

• Palak Paratha (a good way to conceal spinach in their food so your kids will eat it!)
• Palak Ki Subji (pictured right)
• Palak Paneer
• Palak Ki Daal
• Sai Bhaji
