Preferred foods

Tonight we tried a new food, beet greens. They were not particularly tasty, but I wanted T to try them. She was not so inclined.. so I bribed her.
But what could I possibly use as a bribe?
Well, the deal we worked out was that if she tried the greens then she could have some more raw white onion.
You should have seen her stuff those greens in her mouth!
I had to cut up another onion half to satisfy her.
But who could resist her, "Mommy! More onion please!"

She is actually enjoying some fruit in this picture but it definitely conveys her bargaining prowess!

At home I have a recipe for beet greens that involves a lot of garlic and a pinch of red pepper flakes (optional, but after the hot sauce video...). If you would like?
