Let's face it — that pile of peas doesn't move from most kids' plates, but there is hope. Nívea Salgado, a Brazilian mom and Instagrammer, has figured out a way to make her daughter, Catarina, clean her plate even when all the food is healthy. Her solution: bright character creations. Often pulling from favorite stories and fairy tales, these creations make eating healthy fun and adorable. We couldn't stop scrolling through all of her vivid portraits and we're guessing you and your kids won't be able to, either. Check out some of our favorite plates below and keep track of her creative arrangements by following her Instagram.
