She definitely have her favorites! But with her sometimes it's about how I cook something and how I present it. Ie most times she'll eat things if I mix it all into a bowl of its something I'm unsure if she'll eat. Usually I try to make sure there is one thing she will eat for dinner.
But we do cook different things often and ask her to at least try it once. We've found a lot of her new favorites that way!

Breakfast and lunch when it's just is definitely more catered towards her though.

I generally do for breakfast and lunch, but dinner is whatever we're having, so sometimes he eats it and sometimes he doesn't. I do try to make dinners that I think he will like or at least try, i.e. I won't make certain fish because he hasn't eaten it in the past...I probably should just to have him try it again though.

She is one and gets what we are having. I plan to continue this as she gets older and pickier. On nights DH comes home late, I eat with her and keep it warm for DH.

I try things at least 3x or in different forms to see if she likes it. If it fails after that I don't offer it again. For instance, I offered a baked sweet potato (nope), sweet potato fries (nope) and sliced sweet potato with cinnamon and honey (nope)! Some of the things she doesn't like I will hide. I hide beans all the time by blending them and mixing with other things.

She tries new foods a lot, but that does often result in her not eating her dinner at all if she doesn't like it, so her favorites are in heavy rotation.

I do both; give her new things and her favorites. I pretty much have to have her favorites at this time because I want her to eat something at all!

Breakfast and lunch are usually catered toward her and while I definitely change it up and force the family to try new things, DH is incredibly picky so the majority of the time shes getting something she likes then too. I don't want to cook an entire meal no one but me will eat. I Get Bored With Our meals though.

We try and make sure she has one thing that she usually likes or has eaten before. But some nights she won't eat anything. So she goes to bed without eating.

No, she eats what we eat generally, and we're always changing it up. I keep giving things even if she doesn't touch them too, and usually she will start to eat them except for very few things like avocado. I will also try different preparations of things like for example: egg muffins, scrambled eggs, omelettes, poached eggs, hard boiled eggs, etc.(at different times) She prefers some preparations over others, naturally. But I don't write off something without trying it a bunch of different ways lol

I'm really struggling with this b/c yes, we only serve toddler food at this point. I have a really picky toddler that only wants pasta either mac n cheese or tortellini with parmesan. I can sometimes get him to eat other things. He loves fruit and will sometimes eat zucchini. But both DH and I work and we don't get home until about 5:45. It's mad dash to get DS fed and then on to the bedtime routine. We usually eat after him. Yes, I've tried meal planning and relying on the crockpot but we fall back to just feeding him what he wants and try to do better on the weekend. I feel better about this right now b/c he eats so well at daycare. All of their food is freshly prepared and organic and he actually eats it.
