My son, who is 2 years and 3 months is such a picky eater and has become even pickier as time goes on. When he was 18 months he was happy to try anything. All veggies, fish, beans, meats etc. Then he started refusing everything, but would at least eat broccoli and eggs, salmon. Now he refuses those, so we are down to:
Beef meat balls
Chicken nuggets (sometimes - he is starting to refuse those!)
Fish potato sticks (most of the time)
Beans w tomato sauce (sometimes)
butter and bread
fruit puree (will not eat any fresh fruits! EVER!)
pistachios
yogurts
milk
cheese (but now starting not to like as much)
Pizza w hidden puree carrots and green beans in sauce (50% chance he will eat)
wheatabix
banana bread w hidden shredded carrots and squash
Basically, I am having to think of ways, any ways to hide nutrients in his foods. So frustrating!
Are there any of you who just give up a little bit on offering veggies and fruits? Do they just start to like it? My daughter who is almost 4 eats EVERYTHING! Loves fruits, veggies, fresh home made foods etc.
