DS is 13.5 months and eats with us now most of the time.

breakfast: eggs, yogurt, sausage patties (cut up), blue/blackberries, toast...(some sort of combination of the above, yogurt/berries being the constant)

lunch: pb&j, annie's mac n chz, rice+soup, veggie burger, apple, grapes, oranges, tomatoes, etc.

dinner: a protein, rice, and steamed veggies; grilled cheese, soup + rice, or a small portion of our dinners, sometimes a toddler meal bowl

snacks: puffs, mummums, cheese, fruit

He often eats our leftovers and his favorites are protein. In a pinch, he'll eat chicken nuggets and veggie burgers for lunch and dinner. Snacks are pretty much always fruit, cheese or yogurt.

Random list - beets (LO loves roasted beets!), different varieties of lentils and beans. Veggie/bean salads.

It's been much more fun for us since we have started giving LO our leftovers.

Breakfast ideas - whole wheat toast with peanut, cashew or almond butter, hard-boiled or scrambled egg, oatmeal with fruit or applesauce, lots of fresh fruit to pick up and eat

Lunch/dinner - little squares of whatever protein we made for dinner (grilled chicken, pork, turkey, lamb, steak), all kinds of roasted vegetables, whole wheat pasta with tomato veggie sauce or sauce with ground beef/lamb/pork/turkey, stews with a protein (veal, lamb, chicken) and root vegetables, little meatballs made from ground turkey or lamb and spices. I also have been getting bags of frozen veggies (like green beans, broccoli, mixes) and giving LO those along with cubes of cheese, avocado, etc. Praeger's frozen spinach or broccoli pancakes are also yummy and pretty good even though they're processed.

Snack - always gets plain yogurt (Greek or regular) with fresh fruit mixed in.
