    Emmy, I think the cupcakes were too wet because you used the full can, instead of the half can listed in the recipe on the label you showed (at 1:34). The recipe on their website lists a full can, but that is the 14.5 oz can. It might also explain the overly hammy flavor!

I tend to get this brand all the time on clearance, so I love another way to use them if we get bored! And they always have mustard greens, so I imagine a can of those might work here...

    I didn't like veggies as a kid, & I don't like most of them now; however, when my daughter began eating solid foods, I knew I had to change my approach for her. So I ate veggies. I couldn't let her see me sweat it, no matter how awful they tasted (or felt in my mouth). I would pretend to chew some things & then swallow them down (erf...mushrooms!). Her plate looked like a mini version of ours. If she didn't eat something, we didn't make it a big deal. We didn't make it a big deal when she _would_ eat something either.
    What happened was cool, tho. For example, let's say she ignored cabbage the first few times it was served. The fourth time, she simply started eating it. I don't know if she just wasn't paying attention or if she was hungrier that day, but down it went as if she had been eating it all along.
    As she got older, she just ate what was served; only varying in the amount, given her level of hunger. She's 18 now (just graduated high school today, actually...w00t!), & she has a wonderful, even an adventurous, palate! It worked or we just got really lucky!

    My rule was always that kids had to take a bite of everything. If they didn't like it, they could have more of something else Very often, if they tasted the food, they would eat it. More often, after a few tries they would start to like it. Kids need to try new foods quite a few times to develop a taste for some foods. We never had food stand offs at my dinner table.

    As an early childhood educator, I'm no expert on child nutrition, but what I do know, is that the most recent best practice is to not bother having battles about what your child eats, but continually offering new or disliked things alongside things you know your child eats. The less pressure you put on them, the more likely it is that they will learn to try things and have a more well rounded diet as an adult. Children also have vastly more taste buds than adults so bitter things taste much more bitter to a child as well. So if anyone wants to judge you for what you said about feeding your child... they can move right along and keep their judgements to themselves. You are an awesome mom!!

    I think you could make this with a different brand of greens that did not have the smoke flavor. They add that so it will taste like it was cooked with ham-hocks the traditional "Southern style".

    I still make swiss chard Christmas pie every year, because I grew up eating it. So this doesn't seem weird to me at all. I'd totally eat those... I suspect it'd be better if you used boiled greens without fake smoke flavor though.

    Hi Emmy, I'm not sure how familiar you are with Soul Food, but these greens are usually turnip greens, collards and mustard greens. Soul Food does not include kale and rarely does it include spinach. 🤣 And the smokiness is from smoked turkey or hamhocks, although I think the canned version are vegan and liquid smoke is used. The acidity is from vinegar. The pepper is red bell pepper.

    I do the same thing with my kids when it comes to veggies. I never EVER force them to finish them if they don’t like them, but make them take one bite just to try it. If they don’t like it, that’s okay. But I reintroduce the veggies once in a while in a different form (fresh vs cooked, in rice or in soup, etc) and see how they tolerate it. Just gotta show them the many possibilities. Almost always works. Mine are 7, 9, and 10 and will tear up veggies now in all different forms.

I also notice how you never show your kids faces in your videos and I appreciate that as well. Young kids can’t really consent to being on camera and they don’t really understand the permanent impact being put online can have.
