Children's Day Special: 3 easy healthy Mexican dishes your kids will loveChildren's Day Special: 3 easy healthy Mexican dishes your kids will love

This Children's Day, create healthy and completely unique recipes from kid's favourite- nachos

All mummies will agree when I say that it can be quite difficult to come up with new healthy recipe ideas for kid's small hunger pangs. You may have tried different cuisines or created something new out of leftover food, but let's be honest, kids these days are very smart.

They understand that mummy is trying to feed me a sandwich made from the leftover gobhi ki sabzi or baigon ka bharta! We've all been there, haven't we.

So why not create healthy and completely unique recipes from something all the kids love- Nachos. Yes, that's right!

We bring you three recipes that are easy-to-make and not to forget, give you the freedom to add all those green veggies you're kids dread!
