Do not force feed, try to get her involved in the cooking of food, she can help in selecting the vegetables, describing their colours and textures and shape, you may consider some appetite stimulants and multivitamin syrups, in the summers focus more on Fluids and cool food items like juices et cetera and consult a dietitian and your pediatrician for testing as needed
