To ask what has your toddler eaten today ?

[iwantitalltobenormal]

Today and is their diet what you call “balanced” opinions welcomed on what I’ve given my ds today ..

Today my ds has had :

Breakfast - 2 weetabix milk
Snack - 2 cheddar biscuits and some cheese
Lunch - pesto chicken pasta - pudding banana and yoghurt
Dinner - just had chicken goujon wraps with mayo and some tomatoes chopped up and bits of cheese , pudding fruit salad.

He has ALOt of fruit , some days he has a biscuit for a snack or a small piece of chocolate .

Too much sugar ?

That doesn't sound like too much. How old is he?

3yo dd had:

Cornflakes
Cheerios
Buttered toast
Cream crackers
Grapes
Cheese
Pepperami
2 malted milk biscuits
Dinner will be pasta with tuna, broccoli, peas and carrots with pineapple for pudding

My dd would usually have fresh fruit with her enormous breakfast but it was my turn for a lie-in today so dh just gave her what she asked for!

We had our usual Saturday cooked breakfast so she had some sausage, egg, toast and beans and a banana for after. Some banana loaf as a snack and a handful of Cheerios and a potato scone. We didn't have lunch as breakfast was more like brunch! Dinner is some turkey and mixed veg and dessert will probably be some fruit salad.

My 3 year old has had -

• Bowl and a half of Cheerios
• Rice Krispie cake that we made
• Egg on toast

.... that's it today!
My DS has gone really fussy and non-hungry at the moment. It's a nightmare to get him to eat!

Tea tonight is some sort of chicken, sauce and rice (DP is cooking) so hopefully he'll eat that!

Sounds OK to me. I wouldnt usually do a pudding for both lunch and dinner but I see one is fruit so not too bad. At lunchtime I give DD her fruit along with everything else so she doesnt have an expectation of something sweet after every meal.

Shes just turned 3 and today has had
Breakfast - plain shreddies and milk, banana
Snack - milk brioche
Lunch - dairylea sandwich on brown bread (2 slices), spoonful of houmous with breadsticks and cucumber, plum
Afternoon snack - ice cream although we dont usually have an afternoon snack. This was a weekend treat
Dinner- shepherds pie with broccoli, yogurt

How old? It sounds pretty good to me toddlers aren't renowned for being the best eaters lol.

My DD is nearly 2 and has eaten:
Breakfast: 150ml milk + bowl of coco pops with milk.
Snack: half a banana
Lunch: 3/4 of a small cheese and onion roll, her handful of grapes, a few toddler crisp-type things
Snack: Finished the packet of crisps
Another snack: 1 Quorn picnic egg

We won't have dinner til 5.30-6pm and she is likely to eat hardly anything as she never really eats dinner anymore. She will then possibly have a small amount of fruit and another 150ml of milk.

I’d say that’s totally fine! My toddler has had a really off day with food today but yesterday she had;
1 weetabix with some blueberries and grapes for breakfast
2 rich tea fingers with a cup of tea for brunch (honestly 1 going on 80)
1 roast chicken salad wrap, more blueberries and grapes, strawberry and apple, 6-8 pom bear style crisps, 1 savoury egg and a glass of oat milk for lunch
1 raspberry oat bite and MORE blueberries (she’s obsessed) for snack
Spaghetti Bolognese for Dinner
She’s got an allergy to dairy, soya, peanuts and banana so we can’t give some obvious things like cheese annoyingly, and she hates the alternatives!

My DS is 20 month and has had half a bowl of Cheerios, some cubes on cheese and a banana! Now I'm going to battle with him to try get some tea down him! Every meal is a constant battle to get him to eat anything

My almost three year old has eaten

B - 2 scrambly eggs with cheese in it on marmite on one slice of toast.
S - Apple.
S - Half a pear.
L- Cheese sarnie in a wrap, slice of melon, fromage frais, handful of grapes.
S - ice pop.
T- will be 3 or 4 fish fingers, peas, sweet corn and boiled potatoes with an unholy amount of tomato sauce.

It sounds fine. My youngest has just turned 4 so not really a toddler now but I’ll play.

Breakfast was a sausage sandwich followed by an apple chopped up with peanut butter to dip

Lunch was pasta carbonara and a smarties cookie that we had made today

Dinner will be a snacky plate. Crackers, veg sticks and fruit with yogurt and some other bits from the fridge.

My 15 month old had two fingers of toast for breakfast. Rest went on the floor. (The dogs totally dig her). Also some strawberries.

Rice cake for a snack. Acceptable. neither floor or dogs got a sniff

Lunch was cheddar cheese, olives, some apple and some tomatoes. Again the floor got its fair share.

Dinner will be fish and asparagus, Fruit yoghurt for dessert. No doubt dogs and floor will enjoy some of that too.

She also consumes a lot of milk, but then she’s still in her early toddler months.

My 3 year old has had
Bfast - 1 weetabix with oat milk and strawberries
Morning snack - half a slice of toast with banana
Lunch - scrambled egg, avocado and halloumi with more toast
Afternoon snack - some ice cream and grapes
Tea will be aubergine parmigiana
Wouldn't usually have toast twice in one day but dad was in charge of snack!

Breakfast was Nutella generic on wholegrain toast and banana

Lunch was sausage, cucumber, vegan cheese and bread

Snack was half a chocolate doughnut

Dinner will most likely be takeaway probably curry and rice

Lo here is 17mo. So far today
8.00Breakfast toast, milk and blueberries
10.30 Snack banana pb and raisins
14.00Lunch stuffed pasta with tomato sauce and spinach, cheese and figs and raspberries
16.00Snack pear and houmous with cucumber

No big portions but she will eat a bit of everything. Only drinks water apart from the milk at breakfast

Strawberries,
Banana,
Cheese sandwich

Bit of choc Easter egg.

For dinner something with roast chicken

Breakfast: 2 weetabix with full fat milk, a kiwi fruit
Lunch: "cream of" (actually made with Greek yoghurt) lettuce soup with pitta bread
Afternoon snack: raspberries with Greek yoghurt
Dinner will be beef, onion and mushroom casserole with rice

2.5 yo has eaten okayish (success!)

Croissants and fruit for breakfast
Rice cakes for morning snack
Salmon risotto and a fromage frais for lunch

Then he's having vegetable soup and flatbread for dinner probably followed by a choc biscuit

Has a cup of milk in morning and before bed too

21 month old

Porridge with Banana
Another banana
American style Protein pancake (made with quinoa flour and ground almonds) with a homemade spinach and cream cheese dip on
Leftovers from lunch as a snack as he only ate half
A few bits of apple - clearly gone off apple
Going to do pasta and Quorn chicken style pieces in a cauliflower cheese and BNS sauce (cheese sauce blitzed with cauliflower and BNS).
Yog and a bit of fruity pouch for pud.

I think that’s fine OP. I do worry about too much fruit after dinner but sometimes that’s only time I can get it in.

Breakfast: weetabix no milk (crumbs everywhere ahhhhhh) every time I show him the milk he goes mental. Yogurt. Toast.
Snack: brioche and banana.
Lunch: crumpet with peanut butter, cheese and yogurt.
Snack: crackers another banana (only fruit he eats at the moment.
Dinner: pizza, tomato soup and yogurt.
He doesn’t entertain any veg apart from tomato based dinners I put carrots peppers on his plate but he throws them off straight away!

My 3 year old DS had the following

Breakfast: Weetabix with milk and a banana

Snack: Breadsticks with soft cheese

Lunch: Beans on Toast and a small fruit salad (apple, grapes and strawberries)

Snack: A handful of dry multigrain cereal and a cup of milk

Dinner: Chicken curry and rice, homemade baked chips, carrots and watermelon and yoghurt afterwards

However, he is so fussy at the moment that he isn't eating a lot of things (that's why I had to do the chips alongside the curry as he's unlikely to eat anything else!). That's what I'm serving anyway. My 1 year old DD is served the same (and eats most of it!)

My 3 Yr old has had bran flakes and half a slice of toast for breakfast, 2 small clementines for a snack. Bread roll, cheese and a sausage for lunch with some tomatoes. She has had half a small twix as a snack. Dinner is pasta, tuna and broccoli with yogurt for after. She is camping out with her dad tonight so will probably have some crisps etc for camp snacks later. She has however went on a 5 mile walk earlier so not too worried about the extra snacks today.

Sounds ok to me. My just turned 3yo has had:
Breakfast - bowl of Rice Krispies, half a piece of toast with marmite
Snack - handful of raspberries, babybel
Lunch - cheese sandwich, toddler crisps, carrot sticks and cucumber
Snack - yoghurt lolly, orange
Dinner - will have tomato pasta with veg (which she will push about her plate!)

She'd eat us out of house and home in terms of fruit if we let her

Mine had
Breakfast: Porridge with honey
Snack: 2 plums and water
Lunch: half a cucumber, 2 breadsticks, approx 100 gr of Feta cheese, tomato pasta. Water
Snack: Diluting juice and biscuits.
Dinner: Chicken, coleslaw and
2 sausage rolls
Pudding: an ice lollie.

Breakfast - 1 slice toast with peanut butter
Snack - Strawberries and half a banana
Lunch - Toasted cheese sandwich with cucumber. He also ate half the snacks jacks from my plane
Snack - chocolate biscuit
Second snack - Shared pack of Doritos with me
Dinner - lasagne, peas and sweetcorn
Dessert - mini twister
About 4 beakers of squash

He’s 3 and I’m so laid back about eating I’m on the floor. He’s small for his age, still in age 2-3 and mostly slightly big.

Sounds okay to me.
