I tried finding a recipe for my picky toddler to eat her vegetables. Since I couldn't find a healthy one, I came up with this recipe for zucchini yogurt multigrain muffins. One cup of carrots and one cup of zucchini is a nice way to get yellow and green veggies into the diet! You can use any nuts, raisins, etc., in the recipe—whatever is on hand and toddler-approved.
