Ds (2) is ridiculously fussy with veg. Did blw and he was great til about 1 then refused all veg (even child friendly carrots, cucumber etc). If I mix them into stuff he doesn't eat it. He's generally a good eater - he has loads of fruit and he'll try most things but if veg hits his mouth he'll spit it out.
I recently went to m&s cafe and got him their children's fish pie. He ate the entire thing peas n all! (And carrot mash). I've made him fish pie loads before and he'll pick out the fish and leave the potato and veg. I've tried copying their recipe and he still picks out the veg. But when I bought it as a ready meal he ate the whole thing again. Same result with their pasta bakes etc.
I'm tempted just to stock up and give him one a few times a week so I know he's getting some veg. Not cheap but worth it imo. Salt content seems ok.
So aibu to give up solely cooking him fresh food. It'd make my life easier! And does anyone know if there's an unhealthy catch to the m&s children ready meals or why they are apparently like crack to him?
