Sorry, its not clear - do you think your DD needs to gain weight, or mustn't put on more?
If she is a bit chubby, you shouldn't be looking at loosing weight - but to maintain her current weight, and let her grow into it. I'd do that by cutting out chocolate / biscuits / crisps / sweet snacks, and reducing portion sizes.

if she needs to gain weight, try adding in some snacks - cheese and grapes, avocado, boiled eggs, veg with cream cheese dip etc through the day.
