have you tried things like spaghetti bologniase. It's not as dry as just grilling a piece of chicken for example. Also mash veg, roasted meat and mashed potatoes up. She'll love it!

spag bol has been refused about 8 times! She did love it when she first had it, but now wont touch it. Chicken she will taste and spit out, same with ham.

Might try the mash idea..... sounds like something i would eat!

What about something like corned beef hash, where the meat is mashed up with everything else?

Otherwise, I think I'd be inclined to cook some veggie stuff for her for a couple of weeks, then try again.

anyone else????

What about a roast dinner with low salt gravy, just a little bit of meat to start with.

Would she eat a home-made burger? Just mince and onion mixed up, made into burger shapes and cooked?

Or meatballs?

DS was the same .. just give her cheese / beans instead

now at 4 he loves meat

When my charge was little he loved "whizz whizz" (so we called it!)

It was basically all a roast dinner and a little gracy 'whizzed' for about 5 secs in a mini blender thing!

how about that?
Agree with others..... add it to pasta sauce etc... start really pureeing it (tha sauce that is) as if she wet a baby then slowly make it more lumpy.

also you could do it as cottage pies etc, and put things like baked beasn carrot and gravy and meat in the bottom, slowly adding a tiny bit of very finely chopped mince, then reduce the amoint of carrot / peppers / mushroom / onion / baked beans / peas etc until it gradaully eveolves to be a mroe meaty shepheards / cottage pie!
