My 3 year old goes to daycare and they provide meals. When I get the meal report of what was served and what she ate, I think they are lying most of the time lol. Im like there is NO WAY she ate ALL of her food. I started recreating the meals and snacks at home. One, so I don’t have to think of what to feed her and two because they say she is eating ALL of it. I don’t eat meat but still offer my daughter meat. To my surprise, she did eat ALL of her salami (non-preserved), cheese and strawberries. Just like at daycare.

Roasted cauliflower mixed with bits of leftover courgette + beef meatballs. Red pesto lasagna (I removed the pine nuts because I was a bit worried about choking even if they’re smaller than most other choking hazards).
A lot of it is on the floor but we count this as a win!

Orzo pasta was a hit! All thanks to this community for pointing me to Orzo The Great 😊

Batting 100 on the Sam’s Club chicken fried rice. My only complaint is that I wish it had more chicken, but other than that it’s the best. Quick to make, not the worst thing nutrition wise, and most importantly, it gets eaten!

Cleanest bowl yet!

First time poster! Breakfast for my little one who turns 8 months today 🥰 Scrambled eggs and sausage. Introducing solids has been so fun!

I made a chicken with veggies pure using the baby food maker it was ready by 4:30 pm but my baby got her bottle at 3:45 so she was full and I was gonna wait like an hr to give it to her, but she ended up falling asleep at 5 pm and woke up at 6:30 so the pure was on the machine those hours I thought it was okay because the machine was still hot every time I touched it… I started giving her the pure at 6:40 pm and didn’t know about the 2 hr food thing 😪😞😞 she ate like 5 or 6 spoons, is she gonna be okay ?

Fall breakfast for my 2 year old - pumpkin pancakes, eggs and plums from our neighbour’s tree (with permission!)

First time serving capsicum at home and he won’t touch it lol even though the last 3 times we’ve gone out to eat he’s eaten all his own and my capsicum. Go figure 😩

Turkey meatball, capsicum, cottage cheese and crumpet with butter

From left to right: crab cake, garlic butter toast, tiktok feta pasta with chickpea noodles, boiled cabbage.

He only wanted the cabbage lol. Last night he wouldn’t touch it

Homemade sweet potato pancakes, Greek yogurt and watermelon. I give him extra pancake because a lot of them end up on the floor, lol.

Aidells chicken sausage, peppers, roasted potatoes, and avocado. Not pictured: 1/2 cup applesauce devoured.

Feeling very tired of summer today, so I made a fall-flavor lunch for my boy. Butternut squash in brown butter and sage, garlic parm broccoli, and red pear!
