Easy peasie
It’s Easy Peasie! Simply veggies in the best combination of shelf-life, convenience, and great, real food nutrition!
What it's not
Unlike other powdered nutritional products in the market, Easy Peasie does not need to be reconstituted, can be used either hot or cold, is all natural with no artificial ingredients, no artificial sweeteners, no added sugar or fruit sweeteners, no fruit-fillers, no seed or grain fillers, no added salt, and no preservatives.
Easy Peasie Natural Veggie Powders are not a vitamin or artificial supplement; our Blends are real food and meant to be a real food palate-primer. Easy Peasie is made with love (and Good Manufacturing Practices) in a kitchen, not a lab :)
The struggle
Most parents struggle with getting children to eat their veggies, and we know from USDA surveys that 90% of Americans do not meet the minimum daily vegetable intake recommended.
The earlier and more often kids are exposed to vegetable flavors (vegetable palate priming), the earlier they take to them, and the more likely they are to eat a variety of vegetables later in life. Pediatric studies have shown that learning to love veggies early leads to more veggie intake over time and better health as evidenced by lower body mass index (BMI) and adiposity.
Mild-flavored Easy Peasie Veggie Blends provide families another tool to palate-prime children for vegetables by allowing for repeated, discreet exposures to a variety of vegetables at every meal.
Veggie Palate Primer
We think of Easy Peasie as a veggie palate-primer and bridge to whole vegetables. Kids need many tries of new foods before liking them.
With Easy Peasie, families have a new, easy way to get those repeated tries of veggies in. Families use Easy Peasie Veggie Blends to add veggie flavor and extra veggie nutrition to kids’ favorite food and drinks: applesauce, yogurt, oatmeal, pizza, sauces, smoothies, milk, pancakes, burgers, and more!
By adding veggie flavors to foods kids already like, kids' palates are experiencing veggie flavors in fun and positive contexts -- which is awesome for building lasting healthy habits! We made the veggie learning experience less stressful for mom and dad and fun for the kids. Win, win!
How parents and chefs use Easy Peasie
When first using Easy Peasie, we like to say “season to ‘nano-taste’ ” (as opposed to “season to taste”). Add as much as you’d like until the kids notice it!
For an individual container of applesauce, for example, start with half a teaspoon or a few shakes of Easy Peasie and work your way up. When cooking with Easy Peasie (i.e. pancakes or spaghetti), start with adding a tablespoon of EasyPeasie to the mix.
Our chef-customers love our Blends' all-natural colors and flavors, and use them as gluten-free binders, flour/corn meal substitutes, sugar substitutes, or as beautiful dusts!
