Some different things we've tried for Luke that he has liked and are semi-healthy/healthy!<BR/>Turkey Meatloaf or Turkey Meatballs (you can sneak veggies in there!!!)<BR/>Chicken & Cheese Quesadillas<BR/>Tilapia<BR/>Edamame (ShopRite sells little snack size bags with Dora on them, that tricks Luke into eating them!)<BR/>Carrot Sticks or Red Pepper strips (he likes to dip them in ranch dressing)<BR/>old standby-PB&J, he recently started to love it! we give it to him on whole wheat bread or waffles.<BR/>Surprisingly he likes crackers dipped in roasted pepper hummus (we found that out by accident!) <BR/>And he loves fruit, when he got tired of the usual apples, bananas, etc. we gave him mangoes, pineapple, raspberries, kiwi..he loves them all! <BR/>Drinkable yogurt is another of his favorites! I think the key is, like Ally said, variety, don't be afraid to experiment and let him try everything. If he doesn't like it the first time, he might like it a week later!<BR/>GOOD LUCK ;)NoraAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18125325775581741750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3207996736780645629.post-45391268744440309202008-10-14T16:01:00.000-07:002008-10-14T16:01:00.000-07:00Hey, I think you have a great philosophy...and it ...Hey, I think you have a great philosophy...and it obviously works, because your layouts are always works of art! :)Suzanne Webbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04982267387835144016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3207996736780645629.post-46204626083728614362008-10-14T14:42:00.000-07:002008-10-14T14:42:00.000-07:00Based on the new reports that kids need double wha...Based on the new reports that kids need double what was being recommended for daily dairy intake, I think the cheese and yogurts are a good idea. <BR/><BR/>I think the thing to remember is variety and lots of fruit and vegetables. Now is the time to teach the tastebuds that all kinds of flavors are good. Don't OD on the starches or you'll be pizza, mac/cheese and chicken fingers forever and those will be hard habits to break! <BR/><BR/>Keep the foods pure and fresh - lots of different fixings - from spinach with cheese to mangoes and papaya. <BR/><BR/>My kids tried to be picky eaters when they were little but I just kept giving them new foods and never catered - it worked! Today at 17 and 20, they'll eat anything from venison to squid!Allyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02116748329593717640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3207996736780645629.post-12095703232643560712008-10-14T14:37:00.000-07:002008-10-14T14:37:00.000-07:00I always love your style :) I love fall so much I...I always love your style :) I love fall so much I don't think I could ever get a fall overload! lol.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3207996736780645629.post-70968757198837150032008-10-14T10:59:00.000-07:002008-10-14T10:59:00.000-07:00Unfortunately I have no toddler food recommendatio...Unfortunately I have no toddler food recommendations! Little man is looking so grown up. :) I understand the photo OD. Especially since I started doing more 1-photo LO's! I used to cram in a ton of pics on a regular basis. Eh well.

Just means more scrapping to be done - good for us, and hopefully good for you! As for that eating thing - it can certainly be a challenge. My son loved (still does) yams, and they made me feel so good because they are so good for him. Also, butternut squash, most any bread thing, even if I snuck in some veggies in the bisquits. What he doesn't know might actually be good for him. Lots of variety is always a good thing. One thing I wish I did better was just not cater to my son's whims. If I made it and served it, that should have been it. Now, at 8 we are having to implement that discipline. Its hard, but in the long run it will be worth it.Susan Bethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15129738297961552289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3207996736780645629.post-71328801563651760812008-10-14T08:58:00.000-07:002008-10-14T08:58:00.000-07:00Great layouts, love how you mixed the SC with fall...Great layouts, love how you mixed the SC with fallish stuff!!<BR/>My ds is SO picky, but as a toddler, he was a better eater - string cheese, drinkable yogurts, frozen gogurts, orange jello cups with mandarin oranges. I've been making the chocolate chip mini muffins lately (just the simple package ones that you add milk to), I don't add all of the milk it calls for, give it a squirt of chocolate syrup and add in a container of mixed veggies baby food (gotta get veggies in this kid somehow!).<BR/>Good luck!mommy2alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07367660940304978990noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3207996736780645629.post-24335992380890848562008-10-14T08:29:00.000-07:002008-10-14T08:29:00.000-07:00Cute layouts and pics.
