Need help for food ideas for DS10

He’s tall and lean. Plays sport several times a week and is always on the go.

Has had texture issues with food since weaning so no fruit and veg with a skin and no pith/bits (he won’t eat things with the skin removed either). No salad.

He will have fruit juice, smoothies, broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. Loves pasta sauce/saucy foods so I blend veg into that.

He likes carbs but nothing too ‘crispy or dark’. Loves pasta.

He loves breakfast so scrambled eggs on toast, cereal, croissants etc.

He has a packed lunch at school (no fruit and only thinly sliced carrot).

What can I give him after school but before football training? He won’t eat bananas.

Will he have wraps ? You put whatever you'd like in them - chicken, falafels, ffishfinger!

You can eat cereal and eggs at any time of the day.

Would he like porridge or nuts and cereal bars?
Peanut butter on toast?

Crumpets are a winner in our house.

Have you (well him) tried freezing a banana and then blitzing o you have the texture of ice cream? You can add coco powder, peanut butter or, well whatever he likes.

If he likes eggs there are loads of things you could make, pickled egg, quiche, rolled omelette.

Meatballs can be eaten cold.

Soup - make a batch and freeze in 'mug' sizes, just take one out and microwave.

Does he eat cheese?

Does he like rice? Mexican rice = blended vegetables in, also one pan oven baked risotto.

Loads of great ideas. Thanks.

Yes wraps and rice :)

He also likes cheese.
