our dd of 18 months eats most of the above - sandwhiches or toast she will pretty much eat anything that's on them so chicken or jam or cheese & ham or sausage or ... the list goes on. yesterday was chicken and pesto.
macaroni cheese
sausages & beans
potatoes or chips - prefers the potatoes mashed
waffles
pasta
chicken popcorn - she prefers the spicy ones
roast chicken she will eat if its dry but doesn't seem to like gravy on it.
fish - if we are eating out and its fish in batter she will take the batter off and eat the fish on its own
soup - lentil or tomato or carrot and coriander
any vegetables(peas/carrots/peppers/broccoli/cucumber/sweetcorn etc.) or fruit(apples/pears/banana/strawberrys/blackberrys/raspberrys/kiwi fruit/pineapple/grapes etc.) she will eat until the cows come home

shes has had some beef but its not something we tend to eat a lot of

we find if she has what we eat she will eat it but if you get her something different to what we have she will eat it most of the time but sometimes she just plays with it.

Our absolute winner in spaghetti and meatballs. You can make a pasta sauce with lots of hidden veg, and there's something about meatballs which DD thinks is fun, whereas she avoids most other meat.

Ds will only eat a meat n veg meal if he's hungry and in a good mood. He's very happy with anything mince based and most of your list but not hummus!

We just always offer whatever we're eating and it's usually fine.

I'm lucky i have a good little eater, but even so he has fussy days and it can be a bit unpredictable.

He has been known to steal shredded wheat and weetabix from the cupboard and eat them dry.

Absolutely loves peas.
Loves soup and bread- a good way to get veg in.
He's good with veg, he'll eat most of it usually. Loves broccolli, carrots, green beans, doesn't like slimy things like aubergine.

Loves pasta- but will often pick the pasta out of a bowl and leave the rest.

Omelettes are often a winner- very quick and nutritious, and I sometimes put a bit of chopped spinach in them too.

Fruit and sweet things are a bit hit and miss. Sometimes he likes them other times not- seems to prefer savoury.
