    Basically they soak the vegetables until they’re soft enough to use a straw to cut the circle portions. The end result ends up being a perfect Lego. <3

    This is an incredibly smart idea! I was wondering if we can boil and mash vegetables and then mold them into lego shapes.. that would work fine too I guess? Anyways this is a healthy and fun way to get kids eat their veggies

    I’m sure you could. I’m not sure how well they’d hold together, though, so this would probably be the easier route. It might be fun to let the kids try to mold them, though. :D
