[ToddlerMama89]

Just for fun, curiosity and some inspiration!

My almost 2 year old is a pretty picky eater so feel free share any good picky eating ideas or tips too.

Today was a pretty good day. He had:

B: Cheerios x2 bowls
S: Banana & carrot porridge muffin
L: Cheese sandwich with 1 slice of bread, crisps, cucumber batons & half a banana
S: Apple (ate some of it) & milk
D: Eggy bread & baked beans, strawberries
S: Flapjack bites

Yesterday

B- shreddies
S- pain au choc and fruit
L- cheese toastie, tomatoes and cucumber
D- veggie sausage, roll, chips (at bbq)
S- cake, raspberries and strawberries

My toddler is going through a bit of a fussy stage after starting off as an amazing eater that shoved anything and everything in her mouth - it's taking some adjusting! So we're trying to mix in some easy wins in there.

Breakfast - a fried egg, little bit of toast and a bowl of berries. Insisted on nicking a few bites of my yoghurt, granola and fruit.
Snack - cereal bar and a biscuit.
Lunch - tzatziki and pitta fingers, sliced cucumber, carrot and pepper.
Snack - a cornetto (meant to be shared with mummy, but went nuclear on it)
Dinner - chicken dippers, potato smilies and a good portion of veg. Another bowl of berries for pudding. Nicked a few chips and a bite of my burger.
Bottle of milk before bed (I know, I know, we should be phasing this out...)

B: Pancakes with a little Nutella
S: Pear
L: Peanut butter sandwich and carrot stick. Did not eat much as had a big breakfast and only munched on the carrot before spitting out. Was also offered some McDonalds cheeseburger as out for the day and this was what we had but this was rejected.
S: Banana
D: Baked salmon, rice, sweet potato, peas and corn. Ate a little salmon and rice, loads of sweet potato and a couple of peas.

Fuck all 🤦🏻‍♀️

B: Peanut butter on toast, some banana
S: Oaty bar
L: Weetabix with oat milk, handful of blueberries
D: Chicken chasseur with broccoli and mash

16 month old;

B - banana while I have a cup of tea to wake up. Then he had porridge and some blueberries.
L - picky plate of strawberries, raspberries, cucumber, cheese cubes, breadsticks and some mini cheddars
D - slow cooked beef ghoulash with new potatoes and a yoghurt for pud.

No snacks today except a few licks of my solero at the park!

2 years 8 months

B: 'Chocolate' porridge (sprinkle cocoa powder in with the oats) followed by two small pancakes and fruit puree
S: Banana
L: Half English muffin with peanut butter (ate just over half), blueberries
S: Homemade ice lolly
D: Half a fish cake, a few potato wedges, corn on the cob, ketchup, followed by yoghurt and thin slice banana bread

2yo: (add also loads of breastmilk, not sure what was going on with him today but he wanted to feed constantly which is so out of character these days!)

• chocolate porridge (oats, readybrek, ground almond, ground flax, cocao powder, honey)
• Apple, strawberry+apple puree mixed with Greek yoghurt, breadsticks
• Turkey, feta and courgette burger patty, rice w butter, peas
• Leftover birthday cake and ice cream
• Spaghetti, meatballs and homemade tomato/hidden veg sauce with some pear slices on the side
• banana and glass of cows milk

B - banana, toast, cornflakes and blueberries (not all at once, he wakes really early and kind of just grazes all morning)
L - cheese and bean fritters and cucumber
D - meatballs in gravy with cheesy mash and broccoli

S - malted milk biscuit, Kiddilicious smoothie melts and a breadstick

Today my 3 year old had:

Porridge with fruit
Buttery toast, cheese, fruit
Cheese sandwich, half bag of skips, blueberries.
Gingerbread biscuit
Sweet potato mash, roast chicken, mixed veg.
Yoghurt.

Ate all of it but I had to help him eat his main course of tea after the first few mouthfuls. I need to stop doing this but I'm too soft!

B: Banana porridge with peanut butter, chia and flaxseeds, a little bit of dark chocolate and a drizzle of honey.
S. small chocolate chip brioche
L: Ham, cheese and veggie crepe - did not eat much
S. Banana and spinach smoothie
D: home made chicken nuggets with carrots, potato and broccoli with a honey mustard dipping sauce - ate only carrots and chicken. Apple slices after.
