It was really hard to get her to evens it at the dinner table! I used to make a 'sea' of lettuce, with 'boats' of roma tomatoes (you know, if you cut them in halves they do look like boats), people in the boats were cottage cheese and she was the leviathan. So we played that there was a storm and the leviathan ate the boats and people in them. She had a very unusual liking for dark morbid subjects, so we exploited them :) She eventually became a good eater, except for mushrooms she came to try everything at least once.
