I need sweet potato combos...

nmc29 · May 2010

DS will not eat anything that doesn't have sweet potatoes in it. He will take one bite and then clamp his mouth shut tighter than Ft. Knox.

So far I've found sweet potatoes with corn, turkey, apples and in mixed veggies.

Are there any other veggies that mix well with the beloved sweet potatoes??

Is this something I need to be concerned about and bring up to the pedi, or just chalk it up to him being picky?

My idea s to try to wean off onto other things. feed sweet potatoes and add a another veggie to it every day, just a little more of the other veggie each day until you have no sweet potatoes left. see if that works. it's not much for variety, but if you can at least you can try to get him to eat a little more variety.?

We do sweet potatoes and squash. DS LOVES both and I make his food and took a bite the other day it's not bad at all

I put sweet potatos in her oatmeal. It sounds gross to me but DD loves it!

This is what I'd planned on doing...I just wondered what combos were good...

I bought a food processor to make the foods, so I can get more of a variety to mix with the sweet potatoes.
