Handy Hints for Fussy Eaters

DD has FINALLY agreed to eat pasta! The mini bow-tie pasta pieces (farfelle??) were presented to her as "butterflies". Can´t believe it worked!

Anybody got any similar ideas to tempt the tastebuds of fussy eaters?

How old is DD? Different strategies for different ages... FWIW my sis always calls broccoli 'trees' and carrots are 'rudolph's carrots' to get her DS to eat them (he's 8).

Hi CorrieDale, DD is nearly 2, she´s not especially difficult so I think a little encouragement could go a long way...

Dipping. give them a boiled egg and all different sticks of food to dip into it. Or, breadsticks and pureed whatever to dip them in.
