My kids are on the verge of being fussy eaters as they get older. Charley is more open to new foods than what Kirsten is, but she's always been that way so i'm kinda used to it. Frequently I will just cook whatever I know they will eat even though I am wanting or craving something different so I figured i'd give my kids a weeks test run on a variety of food combinations that is not familiar to them. The first simple but tasty one was fried peppers and vegetables in a turkey kebab. I'd say it was a 50-50 hit and miss....Charley loved it, Kirsten didnt, well not at first!
I also gave two of these kebabs to a friend of mine who text me later to say she wanted more, that her and her hubby loved them! Ego restored I discounted Kirsten's review and made it a success by my own denomination!! ;)
