A couple of tricks:
First- make your own pasta sauce. finely chop, saute, and then puree lots of veggies into and you'll get great flavor as well as hide lots of veggies into something you can use in several dishes.
Next. Kids love pizza, right? I can make a plain cheese pizza for vegetarian nights and they'll eat it- but I think that's pretty boring. Problem is, if I load it with veggies, like I'd like, they pick them all off or turn their noses up at it. Here comes trick number two- stuff it all inside a calzone, and suddenly they gobble up the folded, veggie stuffed pizza without complaint.
This time is used mostly broccoli, carrots, cauliflower and spinach in my sauce and calzones this time (along with tomatoes and onions of course) but I'm thinking mushrooms, spinach, artichoke hearts could make for great combos as well.
