One day she will wolf something down, ask for more, ask for it randomly by name and then other times she completely turns her nose up at the same thing. The only thing I do know is that she's practically vegetarian and won't eat most meats. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539411 Tue, 03 May 2016 03:37:55 +0000 Cherrybee 2539411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are in the middle of pickiness hell right now. The ONLY foods she will eat are sausages (only with the skin peeled off), fish fingers, turkey dinosaurs and chips (French fries). She will sometimes eat spaghetti but hates spaghetti sauce. She will also eat crisps (potato chips) and sponge cake. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539406 Tue, 03 May 2016 00:27:57 +0000 lemondrop 2539406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Peas!!!! Hooray, something green! At 4 I can bargain a few bites of things, but the main course he's still very picky about. </p> <p>Peanut butter sandwiches<br /> Cereal<br /> Quesadillas<br /> Grilled cheese sandwiches<br /> Turkey sandwiches<br /> All great right now since I'm in my busy season, and they are all really quick!</p> <p>That's about it :bummed:<br /> Now the little one is entering the 2 year old picky phase. Le sigh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539400 Mon, 02 May 2016 23:42:27 +0000 AprilFool 2539400@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>cake and biscuits *sigh* </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539399 Mon, 02 May 2016 23:38:06 +0000 PawPrints 2539399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Eternal favorites: pineapple, grapes, oranges</p> <p>Recent mega-hits: Salvadoran vinegar slaw, and also spicy kimchi. This baby has quite a palate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539397 Mon, 02 May 2016 23:34:54 +0000 gingerbebe 2539397@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The thing about my kid (20 months) is that he's fickle. He can love something one day and be like WTF is this the next. So its impossible to know what will be a hit.</p> <p>That said, he most reliably eats:</p> <p>- Rice. Sticky, plain rice rolled into bite size balls is the preferred vehicle. Or wrapped in pieces of nori. I can also get him to eat a lot more of something if he can recognize that its rice. So he's been eating a lot of one-pot meals like creamy chicken and rice casserole with veggies, cheesy chicken and broccoli casserole, Japanese curry with rice, risotto, etc.</p> <p>- Mac n cheese from the box and things that are American cheese flavored. He does not like eating cheese straight up.</p> <p>- Oscar Meyer weiners. I've tried fancy all-natural ones and this is the one he digs. He will also eat corn dogs sometimes.</p> <p>- French fries. McDonald's are preferred. Potato chips are also okay.</p> <p>- Ground/processed meat. Meatballs, sausage, hot dogs, meatloaf, pepperoni, etc. Sometimes chicken nuggets.</p> <p>- Things with red sauce. Spaghetti, gnocchi, cheese pizza, and pizza quesadilla (but he hates regular quesadillas, go figure). Mozzarella cheese or parm mixed in with these type things are okay.</p> <p>- Carrots. Soft cooked in things or shredded raw carrots plain or mixed with a little French dressing.</p> <p>- Corn on the cob.</p> <p>- Pretty much all fruit, but he needs a constant rotation of different kinds of fruit.</p> <p>- Yogurt.</p> <p>- Omelet at breakfast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539394 Mon, 02 May 2016 23:21:24 +0000 irene 2539394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thankfully my 4 year old eats a lot of things. </p> <p>For healthy things he LOVES corn on cob, pasta with white (cheese) sauce, any kind of bread, banana, grilled cheese, cereal, french toast, pancakes, crepes. If I serve any of these I would have no problem that he'd eat everything. I can't think of a favorite protein he likes, but he generally eats chicken wings and meat loaf. We had ribs tonight and he liked that too. For green veggies while he eats broccoli, salad and green beans mostly, there is not really one thing that he would just eat everything all on his own. It has always been a hit or miss.</p> <p>He also likes raisins and nuts( eg. almonds). </p> <p>He really eats everything EXCEPT tomatoes, potatoes or sweet potatoes (unless in french fries form), onions, plums, mango, pineapple, cauliflower, asparagus (haven't tried for a while), brussels sprouts (also haven't tried for a while) and anything spicy. Then he wouldn't drink anything other than milk and water - as in he won't drink juice, or any kind of smoothies. He likes milkshake though.</p> <p>I have heard from moms that their kids only eat maybe 10 things out of all food, so I am really thankful with my DS. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539356 Mon, 02 May 2016 21:44:38 +0000 caterw 2539356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2.5 loves french toast, chicken in any form, rice, pasta with red sauce only, peanut butter, pretty much all fruit except for kiwis, and raw green peppers, cucumbers, and carrots. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539353 Mon, 02 May 2016 21:39:18 +0000 caterw 2539353@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anniefannie: Have you made veggie muffins? I used to make them with peeled grated zucchini (so they wouldn't be noticeably green), and sub out the eggs and some of the sugar for applesauce or mashed bananas so they were healthier. Sometimes I would tell DD that they were cupcakes and put some cream cheese on top.</p> <p>I unfortunately don't have a specific recipe since I haven't needed to do this in a long time but it worked! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539252 Mon, 02 May 2016 19:20:54 +0000 Foodnerd81 2539252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 2.5 year old will eat or try a pretty good amount of things, but her favorites are macaroni and cheese (preferably with shell shaped pasta and from a box), cheese, peas, breaded chicken (preferably frozen nuggets but she will eat fresh chicken cutlets, not the leftovers), yogurt, Cheerios and raisins, and pb&amp;j (any nut butter really). </p> <p>Im working on making one meal for al of us and eating together but a lot of nights it's just easier to eat after they are both asleep.</p> <p>Eta: and fruit. Loves all the fruit too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539251 Mon, 02 May 2016 19:19:48 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 2539251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Right now he is having smoothies for breakfast<br /> Usually fruit and veggie and a sandwich or soup for lunch and eating it all well. He loves soup<br /> Dinner he likes fries (duh!), pasta, meatballs, meatloaf, cauliflower and some other random things. Usually eats chicken well. </p> <p>He also is obsessed with all fruit. And loves popcorn. 😁 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539244 Mon, 02 May 2016 19:14:25 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 2539244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dd1--teriyaki chicken and rice, turkey spaghetti, pierogies and turkey keilbasa sausage, grilled hamburbers<br /> Dd2--fried rice, tater tot casserole, any kind of pasta with red sauce and ground turkey, corn on the cob (obsessed) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-kids-favorite-meals-right-now#post-2539228 Mon, 02 May 2016 18:41:05 +0000 mfa_lady 2539228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Annie's mac and cheese, green beans, and beets.
