R will sometimes eat them at day care. But won't eat them at home unless roasted sweet potatoes cubes once a week. Or pouches, girlfriend will eat everything if it is in a pouch but I want to get away from those.
-
She loves puréed veggies. Peas are her favorite. Haven't done many table food veggies yet, but soon!
-
Xander LOVES Carrots. But only the stupid expensive Gerber "learning to pick up" ones. Canned, nope. Frozen, nope. But the Gerber ones, YES. It's the only veggie he'll eat at home (unless like R it's in a pouch).
-
@Adira: have you tried roasting some yourself?
-
@Smurfette: Hmm... actually roasting them? No, haven't tried that, but maybe I need to! I tried steaming them and then adding a couple to the Gerber ones, but he could tell!!! He ate all the Gerber ones and avoided the ones I made!
-
R loves veggies...I suppose it's a bright side to all of her allergies, she doesn't get much variety! Her favorites are broccoli and cauliflower--mixed veggies are a close second (steam bag for the win!). Not a fan of zucchini and squash.
-
most of the time, yes, other times, no. it's really hit and miss. if i feel like she's not eating enough, i'll make some frozen peas or corn and she devours that!
-
M loves peas, carrots, broccoli, green beans, and asparagus!
-
He won't touch them and it drives me crazy. In a pouch is the only way he'll eat them...so annoying,
-
NO WAY! Which breaks my heart because I LOVE veggies. DS has never eaten a vegetable at home. His daycare provider claims he'll eat broccoli, cabbage, greens, etc. at her house, but I don't buy it.
Glad to hear we're not the only ones!
-
She used to love veggies of all kinds - mostly steamed. She ate them up when we first started solids and when she started table foods...then sometime after she turned 2 she started rejecting them. Now she will eat some veggies a few times a week. I try not to stress and just try to continue offering them
-
Not really, but he will eat them if they are finely chopped and mixed in with something he does like, eg rice.
-
@Smurfette: only if it's in a pouch! He'll be 3 in October and refuses to try a single vegetable! Sigh!
-
Depends - she likes broccoli, spinach, bok choy, carrots, frozen peas, napa cabbage, and kale in smoothies. Otherwise, most other vegetables have been a fail so far.
-
Toddler is kinda picky but LO 2 still loves all veggies...for now.
-
For the most part! He tends to like the sweeter ones though, like peas and carrots, and will fill up on them and ignore the others if he has a choice.
-
Lately she doesn't like sweet potatoes and carrots but she loves string beans, peas, corn, tomatoes, and cucumber.
-
We're on the pouch train too. I have no desire to get off, though. She likes them and she's getting her veggies in. I have lots of friends whose preschoolers (3 & 4yo's) eat them.
-
C loves peas, sweet potato, and corn. He sometimes likes green beans. He detests tomato and broccoli with the fire of a thousand suns! We haven't really tried carrots yet! Hmm...
-
Fortunately, yes. This evening, DS "helped" me by chopping his velcro-connected wooden carrots while I chopped the actual vegetable carrots that he will end up eating for lunch tomorrow.
-
She likes potatoes. I have to sneak the rest in by giving her a pouch that is veggies mixed with fruit.
-
He likes peas and carrots at the moment.
He'll eat other veggies if it's mixed it with stuff.
-
Peas, corn and sometimes carrots. The other day I made roasted brocolli with raisin vinaigrette and he liked that but otherwise only in pouch form.
Eta: when I'm desperate he LOVES green juice from trader joes. It has purées in it so it's more a smoothie than juice.
-
DS is not a fan of veggies. He'll eat a bite here and there of broccoli or green beans, but not a whole lot. DD, she eats the veggies first off of her plate. And the funny thing is, when I was pregnant with DS, I had an aversion to cooked vegetables, and I didn't with DD!
-
Only broccoli! I make veggie muffins and soup to sneak other veggies in.
-
Yes! Although he's 14 months, so I figure we have plenty of time for him to go through a picky stage. I'm really proud of him though, just the other day DH snapped a picture of him holding a broccoli in his hand and a piece of asparagus hanging out of his mouth!
-
Nope
I need to try to find some she will actually eat! She used to LOVE the mixed veges (peas, corn, carrot) but she won't even touch them now.
-
Very few, unless they are in a soup and he doesn't notice. I still serve them at every meal in hopes that one day he'll change his tune!
-
D is a great veggie eater.
M hasn't had solids yet, but I think he'll like them.
