No Veggies

GabbysMama

My DD WILL NOT EAT VEGGIES.  I have tried everything.  She spits out veggie baby food and if I mix veggies into her fruit, she knows.  I have tried steaming veggies cutting them up and putting them on her highchair or even putting a small piece on each spoonfull of fruit baby food.  Nothing is working.  Am I alone?

She will eat Sweet Potatos but that is it!

Have you tried whole peas? DD loves peas and they are very easy for her to feed herself.

Many times (I normally do because I have heard that sometimes it takes 3 or more times before they actually like it) but she still doesn't like them.  She plays with them.  She also won't eat any fruits unless it is baby food.  She loves to self feed but only her snacks and those stupid jarred hotdogs that she loves.  I bought the chicken/carrott kind (gross me out) and she love love loves them!

Maybe you could try some recipes from Deceptively Delicious. I found a copy at TJ Maxx for 6.99. There is a really good applesauce muffin recipe in there that has carrot puree in it. I haven't tried any of the other recipes yet but most of them look really good.

I will have to check that out.  Thanks!

DD isn't a big fan of veggies- she'll only eat peas and broccoli, and sometimes she won't even eat those.  I just keep offering them, and I don't make a big deal when she won't eat them (I also don't make a big deal of it if she eats them).  It takes kids 15-20 tastes of something before they decided if they like it, so just keep trying.
