Porridge
Banana
Sausage sandwich
Handful of cheese puff things

Fruit compote and a slice of toast and jam for breakfast plus a yogurt.

Pasta and tomato sauce with grated cheese for lunch.

Chicken casserole with boiled potatoes for dinner followed by a chocolate yogurt and some cheese.

A snack mid afternoon of a fruit compote and a couple of biscuits.

He doesn't like milk so we encourage lots of cheese and yogurt. He only drinks water

Butcher muesli with yoghurt
Apple
Beans on toast
Cucumber slices

Couple of bites of my chocolate biscuit

Licked the butter off a bagel, ate the middle of an apple (it looked like a little belt on the apple) a piece of cheese, half a ham sandwich, sausage inside (left the skin on the plate) broccoli, sweet corn and carrots and mashed potato, a fruit pouch (Ella's kitchen thing) and half a banana. Drank one cup of milk, and about six cups of water throughout the day, wheedled a fruit juice carton out of daddy and may have had a crafty bite of Daddy's chocolate biscuit.

Own brand Weetos knock off for breakfast
A cookie for a one off treat
Half a chicken sandwich and a banana for lunch
Cottage pie for tea

Rachie1986 · 31/07/2017 21:34

Cheerios
Probably some fruit mid morning (was at in-laws)
Sandwich (small according to her!)
Cucumber
Huge ice-cream (in-laws!)
Apple
Breadstick (when complained she was hungry due to small sandwich!)
5sweets
Cook kids cottage pie and peas
Small flapjack bite

Usually a bit healthier than that - blame in-laws!!

Orangedaisy · 31/07/2017 21:34

Oh and a piece of fudge

Bibs2014 · 31/07/2017 21:34

Do you let your child have the occasional fruit shoot? Mine has just discovered them.

OP posts:
foxessocks · 31/07/2017 21:36

A bowl of porridge
A bowl of weetabix (for some reason she requested two breakfasts this morning)
A tiny slither of an egg sandwich - probably about four bites.
A bite of my cheese toastie
A few crisps
A chunk of pain au chocolat
An apple
Lots of pasta in tomato sauce and ate one piece of chicken with it (are two pieces of courgette but spat them out Hmm) . A piece of garlic bread.
A Frube
Some sweets she had leftover from a party bag

Drinks have been lots of milk, some water and a fruit smoothie with lunch

Shemozzle · 31/07/2017 21:36

What she was given:
Weetabix and raisins
Egg mayo wrap with pepper and cucumber
Cheese sandwich,
Burger in bun with lettuce and grated carrot
Carrot and courgette muffin, blueberries

What she ate:
2 or 3 spoonfuls of weetabix
2 mouthfuls of egg mayo wrap, all the pepper and cucumber
The cheese out the sandwich
The burger out the bun
The carrot and courgette muffin and the blueberries

She isn't fussy because she doesn't like stuff but because she seems to hardly have an appetite at the moment so will only pick at things or sweet stuff/crap.

CheshireChat · 31/07/2017 21:37

Refused breakfast, had a brioche bun and a spoonful of cheese for lunch. A cup of milk instead of a snack.

Half a brioche bun (if that), 3 baby bells, strawberries and satsumas pearhoins as he calls them for tea.

Refused hot chocolate with marshmallows Shock, but he's got a bad cold.

Lovelongweekends · 31/07/2017 21:38

No, but mainly because there's something weird in them that make my dc instantly desperate to wee so I avoid them them as much as possible!!

Justwaitingforaline · 31/07/2017 21:38

Nearly 3 year old :

Breakfast :
Mini shreddies, a yogurt, a lick of a melon finger
Snack: an apple and a ginger nut
Lunch:
Tuna sandwich, carrot sticks, cucumber sticks, red pepper hummus, ice lolly ( mini milk) for pudding
Dinner : chickpea and chicken curry with rice

foxessocks · 31/07/2017 21:38

Op my 3 yo has a fruit shoot probably once or twice a week, if we go to a cafe she pretty much always has one! At home she mainly drinks milk, sometimes squash and water before bed.

SpaghettiMeatballs · 31/07/2017 21:38

Weetabix
Banana
Half jacket potato with cheese, tomatoes and sweet corn
Ice cream at the park.
Spag Bol
Yoghurt
Milk before bed.

In answer to the FruitShoot question, yes, I do. He's not my first so I've moved past my angst. I let him have a drink like this in a cafe or restaurant just as I might have a sugary drink / milk heavy coffee too when I'm out. He has water, milk or very weak squash at home so I don't see the harm.

Bibs2014 · 31/07/2017 21:38

Thanks for replies, they look similar to my DS's meals.

OP posts:
FreedomMummy · 31/07/2017 21:38

Weetabix
Fruit salad
Rice cake and some fruit flakes
English muffin pizzas
Apple
Homemade cookies
Thai prawn noodles
Plum
Drinks mainly squash

Yes very occasionally has fruit shoots but main issue is that it makes him pee so not ideal, especially when out!

foxessocks · 31/07/2017 21:39

It's not always an actual fruit shoot sometimes it's one of those hi-5 things or a box of juice or a smoothie thing like today...but all probably quite sweet!
