What does your 2 year old eat....my son is not very picky but i am so Im not much of a cook, i am trying desperately to give him different eating habits than me. I feel like its still the same old stuff for him though.

Breakfast:

Scrambled egg whites w/ cheese, fruit, & toast w/ preserves &/or cream cheese

Oatmeal made w/ fruit & almond milk

Greek yogurt, fruit, & toast w/ preserves &/or cream cheese

Pancakes, eggs, and bacon or sausage if we're going all out

 

Lunch - I usually make one of the following with a side of fruit and if she's still hungry she usually asks for yogurt too, we like the Vanilla Chobani:

Chicken sandwich melt - diced leftover chicken & mozzarella on whole wheat,  microwaved for about 30 sec

Mini Pizza - half a wheat english muffin w/ diced chicken or precooked turkey sausage crumbles (I buy the Jimmy Dean ones) pasta sauce, & cheese microwaved for about 30 sec

Chicken Nuggets w/ honey - the frozen kind, nothing fancy but I do buy the organic ones!

Sometimes I just cut up cheese, dice some leftover chicken, maybe a few raw veggies w/ some ranch yogurt to dip them in, some crackers. Or I'll heat up leftovers from dinner.

 

For dinner she eats whatever we eat. Unless its something really spicy or that I know she doesn't like, then I usually make her some pasta (I like the kids kind made with veggies, can't think of the brand) and I mix in some frozen veggies, chicken, and cheese with the sauce.

 

This website (https://weelicious.com/) is awesome for all kinds of kid recipe ideas too. I've tried some things from there to mix in with our above normal go to meals and have always had good luck!
