Operation Fiber!

So my oldest child has an aversion to anything healthy! Like fruits and vegetables. This has led her to have lots of tummy troubles. I decided to go on a mission to get fiber in her system in any form. My first attempt was a smoothie that contained flax seed. It was an epic FAIL!!!! She took two drinks and was DONE!! The third drink ended with a gagging fit!! This child is all but impossible. However, my attempts have not stalled with our first fail. Today I am making home made spaghetti sauce, she usually laps it up. I will infuse it will ground flax seed....we shall see how it goes.
The little people thought they were GREAT and I enjoyed the smoothie as well....it must have smelled healthy........LOL

We are attempting to improve not only our diet but our finances as well. Which means I will be doing LOTS of cooking......If anyone has any easy kid and budget friendly recipes, I am open to all suggestions. :)
