Another way to trick yourself into eating something healthy for dessert is by creating milkshakes - banana milkshakes, to be more precise. At home, whenever we had bananas that were starting to brown, we would peel them and place them in the freezer. Then, whenever we needed a healthy snack or dessert, our dad would put them in a blender with a little bit of skim milk. This fast and easy concoction was probably my largest supply of milk as a child, comparable only to milk and cereal, and tasted just as good as the other desserts we were served.

Another easy way to eat healthily without giving up good flavors is by eating healthy bread. As you probably know by now, I eat very few foods. One of the things I do eat, almost every day, is a peanut butter sandwich. To add more vitamins to my diet, I eat only whole grain bread instead of white bread. And it is also especially important to take calcium supplements because most bone growth occurs during adolescence, especially in females.

So there you have it. Even if you're one of those people who still orders off the kids' menu at restaurants because you don't like any of the other entrées, you can still get necessary vitamins into your diet. However, I still suggest that anybody as picky as I am should invest in a multivitamin.
