Pink cauliflower? Sure. </p> <p>Maybe read green eggs and ham and then make green eggs? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/egg-food-challenge-with-a-picky-3-year-old#post-2537248 Fri, 29 Apr 2016 15:39:12 +0000 stiletto_mom 2537248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Make regular eggs but on the plate, make a cute scene or animal.</p> <p>Scrambled eggs could be wool on a sheep, clouds in the sky, blonde hair etc.</p> <p>Hard boiled eggs can be cut into the shape of a sun, eyes, or make animals bodies.</p> <p>Flavor with a little salt and pepper. For picky kids, maybe a tiny bit of ketchup. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/egg-food-challenge-with-a-picky-3-year-old#post-2537240 Fri, 29 Apr 2016 15:31:36 +0000 hummusgirl 2537240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My suggestion was going to be similar to @PinkElephant - our nanny used to add garlic powder and salt to scrambled eggs and LO ate them up. Or egg salad with mayo, mustard and pickle relish? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/egg-food-challenge-with-a-picky-3-year-old#post-2537220 Fri, 29 Apr 2016 15:20:38 +0000 PinkElephant 2537220@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I haven't done a food challenge, but are you allowed to mix them with other things you know she is not allergic to? Coating eggs with cheese is a quick way to get my DDs to eat lots of them, but that won't help if she can't have dairy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/egg-food-challenge-with-a-picky-3-year-old#post-2537194 Fri, 29 Apr 2016 15:03:24 +0000 HappyBaker 2537194@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We just had DD's yearly allergy testing and her egg allergy results were such that her doctor said we could do a food challenge with scrambled eggs, either at home or at the office, whichever we're more comfortable with. </p> <p>My concern is getting her to actually EAT scrambled eggs haha. Any tips from people who've done a food challenge with a picky kid? I'm wondering if we go to the office it might be better because it wouldn't be just ME telling her to eat it? </p>
