Hi everyone,

Awhile ago there was a thread going where we wrote what our toddlers had eaten each day and it was great seeing how/what others were eating. It was really helpful.

I just wondered if anyone fancied starting it up again.

DS 22m
Breakfast - 1 1/2 pancakes made from banana egg and oats. 4 chunks of melon
Snack - 2/3rds of a satsuma
Lunch - pork loin steak, carrots, parsnips, peas. 3 bites of boiled potato with butter
Snack - was on a playdate so some scrambled egg as we arrived while they were eating lunch. 2 strawberries 2x crackers and couple pieces of pineapple.
Tea - couple chunks of chicken, slice of pepper and probably half a mouthful of egg noodles. 4 chunks of melon.

Breakfast: attempted and failed with scrambled eggs on toast (despite him enjoying some of mine last week) so it was just 2 slices of toast with butter for him in the end

Snack: 5 small blueberry rice cakes

Lunch: 2 packets of mini cheddars. Some strawberries. Handful of cashews and raisins.

Dinner: probably 4 tablespoons of peas. 3 fish fingers. Chips. Small glass of orange juice that I squeezed from an orange (rather than bought juice) and a drive.

DS age 3.5. Breakfast half a weetabix. Snack 2 apple slices. Lunch plain pasta. Snack biscuit. Dinner 2 fishfingers, more pasta (older brother was having it) and a microscopic speck of broccoli. I don't seem to breed eaters as none of my 3 have been big on food.

FlatPackPat · 21/06/2019 19:17

Breakfast 2 slices of butter on toast

Morning snack Maryland cookie and 2 mini gingerbread men. Juice.

lunch Quavers. 2 segment orange. Organic cacao and raisin bar. Halnut. Handful Cheerios. 1/2 cashews. Raspberry frube.

Afternoon snack Fruity star things. Most of a packet of mini cheddars.

Dinner Shedload of roasted potatoes, skin on. But of baby corn. A few mangetout. Banana, strawberry and blueberry smoothie with chia seeds, oats and almond milk.

He's eating so much more since my milk has dried up which is great. We weighed him tonight and he's 75th percentile!!
