Toddler lunch ideas

[meepmoop]

Hi everyone,

Just looking for some lunch suggestions for my 2 year old.

He doesn't really like sandwiches and I've got stuck in a crackers, cheese, ham and veg sticks rut.

Thank you

I've just made some baked beans, to have with toast, or on a jpot.
Also just made a parsnip n carrot soup, which is sweet so I know it'll go down well.

Can it be hot or is it eaten away from home?
Wraps with grated carrot and humous
Toasties
Egg on toast or boiled with soldiers
Fritatas with whatever veg he’ll eat
Bagel with cream cheese and cherry toms
Tuna pasta salad

Banana and pancake
Pesto pasta
Cheese toastie and tomato soup

Tuna pasta
Wraps
Avocado on toast
Beans on toast
Jacket potatoes
Omelette
Scrambled/ boiled/ poached eggs
Pita pizza
Quiche or pastry less quiche
Pasta and tomato sauce
Hummus and things to dip
Cheese on toast with soup
Bagel and cream cheese
Crumpets

All favourites in our house.

I tend to go between Cheese and Crackers, Omlette, Banana pancakes and toasties.

Dip dip soup. Sweet potato jackets (mine won't eat potatoe still) with beans or veg chilli.
He likes to make pancakes and puff pastry flat tarts. Rol it out nad he helps shove topping on then in oven - 20 min and done.

Love this thread, following as I'm stuck in the same rut with mine.

My son loves plain low salt rice cakes with peanut butter on it.

Cheese sticks cut into cubes, raisins, blueberries, strawberries, grapes cut into lengthways.

Ham and cheese toastie.

Beans on toast

Jacket potato with fillings of choice

Mackerel in tomato sauce mixed with dry rice

Chow mien using low sodium soy sauce and vegetables

Cheesy mushroom omelette

Eggs bread

Roasted peppers filled with soft cheese / Wraps/ Boiled eggs / guacomole with toasted pitta

We often have soup - often made from vegetables from the community fridge, so almost free, homemade, and very nutritious.

(In case that sounds a bit smug, I’ll mention here that my house is a pigsty )

Beans on toast
Birds Eye waffles
Kids pizza (low salt) topped with extra veg
Pasta with sauce
Egg and toast
Fish fingers and garden peas
I often make extra dinner the night before so we can have leftovers for lunch

Cheese on toast
Cheese toasties
Eggybread/ French toast
Spanish omelette
Boiled eggs
Noodles/ramen
Tostito's

I’ve got the slow cooker version and the baby led weaning one and both are great. There is also a fussy toddler one.

Cook a batch of pasta and store in fridge in airtight container. Should be good for about 5 days. Each day add diff things to the pasta (e.g cream cheese, tomato puree and cheese, Tuna and Mayo)

These are all great, thank you
