Having developed the palate of a fussy 5 year old, just what do you suggest I eat?

Everything tastes crap and nauseating. Poor DH is preparing meals that I pick at, nibble a bit then push it aside. Even tried not looking at it to see if I can just force it down, but it's just not working.

Homemade rice pudding goes down fairly well. Surely I can't live on puddings!

DH has suggested we go to the shop tomorrow together to get inspiration.

Am 13 weeks pregnant with 3rd child. Have not had this before for such a long time.

Please give me some food/recipe inspiration to get some nutrition into me.

Marmite pasta sounds amazing! M&S Greek yoghurt with honey seems to be going down ok this morning :)

Crumpets with margarine. Salt and vinegar squares crisps. Oohh and fajitas aswell. I don't even mind cooking those as they smell so good.

I found I could manage vegetarian ready meals, especially veggie lasagne. How about something like cauliflower cheese, that doesn't have much flavour?

The only proper meals I managed (others were mainly buttered toast and cereal)... were white pasta with butter and cheese - and sliced up breaded quorn chicken style burgers with polenta chips and grilled corn on the cobs. Both very carb-heavy and beige, but better than crisps which was the only alternative Grin

For pudding, frozen blueberries or a sliced up green apple - both bite size so not too challenging to eat - and really refreshing and zingy.
