Your toddler hates vegetables????
Mealtimes can be a real test at this age. But with a little patience and a bit of effort even the fussiest of picky eaters can find several vegetables they like and even a few they will love!
Avoid forcing and bargaining

It’s so important not to get in a battle with your child about what they eat.

In my opinion avoid bargaining or bribing when it comes to food. The obvious one is to say ‘You won’t get any chocolates if you don’t finish your lunch’. While this is a great theory children may feel cheated if we failed to give them the chocolates.
Gardening

Gardening is a wonderful activity for children. It connects them to their food source.

They can learn sowing seeds, watering plants, plucking veggies...etc. More over they can eat fresh pesticide's free organic vegetables.
Prepare Meals Together

Like gardening, preparing meals together can be a wonderful way to get your child to eat some vegetables.
Set a good example.;

Have family meals together and let your child see what you eating a variety of nutritious veggies yourself. Toddlers are also more likely to eat what their family eat, so look for opportunities where they can eat healthy foods.
Sneak veggies in

It's time to show your smartness.

If kids don't like broccoli sneak it in the pizza.
Try and try again

If at first you are not succeed, try and try again.;Studies have shown it may take more than 10 tries before a child accepts a new food.;
Let them feed themselves

Yes, it’s messy. And time consuming. But, for some reason, when those little fingers have control over what they are eating and putting in their mouths, they might surprise you.
Try soups or juices

Pureed vegetables and juices can slide easily under a toddler’s taste radar if you add them into mainstay meals.
Make it fun.;

Try making a food art with Colour full veggies.
Start them young

You can try Baby led weaning method to introduce veggies (boiled)in early stages.

It really worked for Medha,I believe it's a big reason that my baby eats well now.
Use some dip

Try serving veggies with yogurt dip or sprinkled with cheese.
