How to Add Whole Grains to Your Family's Diet

You can easily add whole grains to your family's diet, and they won't even know it! Use these secret ways to get your family eating healthier, without hearing even one complaint.

Things You’ll Need:

• Whole wheat bread
• Whole grain *****ers
• Oats
• Poppy seeds
• Sesame seeds
• Walnuts
• Almonds
• Pecans
• Lentils
• Couscous
• Barley

Replace Single Grains with Whole Grains

Step1


Skip the standard bread crumbs when cooking meatloaf or meatballs or breading chicken. Replace the regular bread crumbs with homemade bread crumbs made with wheat bread. Or use crushed-up whole grain *****ers. The foods will be healthier and more flavorful.
Step2


Replace a portion of the processed white flour you use in baking with a healthier flour. You can use a combination of flours for the best baking results. Some whole grain flours to try include whole wheat flour or rye flour.

Step3


Turn a white rice habit into a brown rice habit. Brown rice is a whole grain and is more nutritious than white rice.

Step4


Opt for whole grain pasta rather than regular pasta. More and more companies are making whole grain pastas available on the supermarket shelf. Take advantage of these whole grain foods by incorporating them into your family's daily diet.


Add Whole Grains

Step1


Add unsalted nuts to appropriate dishes. Toast some almonds for salad, or encrust a chicken with crushed almonds. Add walnuts to muffins, breads and brownies.

Step2

Adding new food items to your family's diet to introduce whole grains.
