My 2 1/2 year old refuses to eat any type of vegetable...but WILL eat jar baby food veggies! The squash/zucchini mix was one she loved...until suddenly. Desperate to get her to eat it SOMEHOW, I decided to get creative with it. She LOVED these and the rest of the family and some friends found them to be yummy too! Success!!
