The Veggie Gap, Solved
real vegetables in every cube — for picky eaters and grown-ups alike.
Most of us fall short of daily vegetable targets, kids and adults alike. One Garden Pals cube dissolves into warm water, straight into the pot, or blended into a smoothie — closing the gap for the whole family, not just the kids plate.
The Veggie Gap
Why vegetables matter
Health guidelines suggest daily vegetable targets that most families do not hit — here is the actual gap Garden Pals is built to close.
Getting a toddler to eat a full cup of broccoli is tough. Garden Pals makes it effortless — one cube dissolves into food they already love, a smoothie, or fresh juice, quietly closing the veggie gap at every meal, for kids and adults alike.
* Based on the U.S. Dietary Guidelines for Americans and USDA MyPlate (myplate.gov), which publish vegetable recommendations as cup-equivalents. Gram figures shown are approximate conversions for reference, not official USDA measurements. Individual needs vary by age, sex, and activity level.

How It Works
Two ways to use it.
Make a paste, or add straight to the pan.
- 1Add cube to a bowl
Drop the whole cube into a small bowl.
- 2Pour 2–3 tbsp of warm water
Just enough to cover the cube.
- 3Cover and wait 60 seconds
Let the cube absorb the water and soften.
- 4Mix until lumps dissolve
Stir with a spoon until smooth and uniform.
- 5Pour over your dish or into a pan
Add the paste on top of a prepared dish to mix in, or add it to a pan to start cooking from scratch.
- 1Add cube to warm water in a pan
Drop the whole cube into 1/4 cup of warm water in a pan. Let it dissolve.
- 2Add your dish
Add rice, protein, pasta, vegetables — whatever you are cooking.
- 3Mix and enjoy
Stir everything together. The flavor distributes evenly as it cooks.
The Golden Ratio
1 cube · 1 cup
1 cube per 1 cup of food or liquid. Scale up for bigger portions.
Where It Disappears
Everyday food, upgraded.
Add it to food you already make. The cube dissolves completely — no one will know.
Mac & Cheese
Stir into the cheese sauce. Vitamins in, texture unchanged.
Mashed Potatoes
Dissolve into the milk and butter before mashing. Zero detection risk.
Soups & Stews
Use as a rich broth base. The veggies rehydrate as it simmers.
Rice & Grains
Drop into the pot as the rice cooks. Every grain gets flavored.
Smoothies & Juice
Blend into a fruit smoothie or fresh juice for a vegetable boost that disappears into the sweetness.
Why Freeze-Dried
Real ingredients, paused at peak.
Conventional drying uses high heat. It strips out flavor, aroma, and much of what made the ingredient worth using in the first place.
Freeze-drying works differently. Ingredients are flash-frozen at their freshest, then the water is drawn out at low temperature — leaving color, aroma, and nutrients largely intact. When the cube meets moisture again, everything wakes back up.
Questions, answered
No — that is the point. Garden Pals is designed to blend into savory foods without changing their flavor or texture. It adds a subtle savory depth, which is why it works so well in mac and cheese, mashed potatoes, and rice dishes.
15+ real vegetables including carrot, spinach, broccoli, tomato, kale, beetroot, sweet potato, cauliflower, peas, bell pepper, pumpkin, zucchini, green beans, onion, and garlic, plus sea salt and herbs. Every ingredient is on the back-of-pouch label.
6 cubes per pouch.
Warm water. See the How It Works section above for both the paste method and the straight-to-pan method.
Room temperature, resealed after each use. Keep the included oxygen absorber packet inside the pouch — it prevents moisture from getting in and keeps the cubes crisp. No refrigeration needed. Shelf life is 12 months from the date of manufacture, printed on the back of the pouch.
