She kept making the "more" sign which she only ever uses for yogurt. Sorry kid.)</p> <p>She will also always eat: cheddar cheese, pepper jack cheese, black beans with seasoning or salsa, peanut butter, lentils. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-protein-does-your-lo-eat-best/page/2#post-2577655 Wed, 29 Jun 2016 11:23:45 +0000 snowjewelz 2577655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Cheese.

And hummus, not on anything, just hummus. Greek yogurt used to be a huge win, but I think I burned them out on that for the time being. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-protein-does-your-lo-eat-best#post-2577036 Tue, 28 Jun 2016 14:19:01 +0000 avivoca 2577036@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Whichever one I did not serve that night. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-protein-does-your-lo-eat-best#post-2577023 Tue, 28 Jun 2016 14:09:01 +0000 Chillybear 2577023@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>eggs, meatballs, chicken nuggets, edamame, hummus, PB, Milk, yogurt, cheese </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-protein-does-your-lo-eat-best#post-2576995 Tue, 28 Jun 2016 13:36:56 +0000 travelgirl1 2576995@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both love peanut butter, eggs (we often do omelettes for lunch), beef, shredded dark chicken, fish and beans.

Seriously. Steak, pork chops, ground beef, bacon, duck, goat, salmon, shrimp, clams, chicken, lamb. He loves it all. He's also really good with cheeses and yogurt. Thus far we have not had very good success with eggs and beans, but we're working on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-protein-does-your-lo-eat-best#post-2576958 Tue, 28 Jun 2016 13:12:49 +0000 winniebee 2576958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They are great with protein....it's veggies that we have a real problem with! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-protein-does-your-lo-eat-best#post-2576956 Tue, 28 Jun 2016 13:09:34 +0000 mand4 2576956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I let 3yo choose which color beans to have for a finger food snack.

We do lots of baked chicken breast, chicken sausage, and fish.
