Finger foods

GirlStylist · April 2011

Jasp doesn't like mush stuff. No avocado etc. Has a texture issue ( so do i ).

He is currently eating, bread with sunflower butter, tortillas, grapes cut up with no skin, bananas, apple, pancakes.

I feel like I need more ideas. Any ideas ? I tried edemame and carrotts soft. Nope.

Thanks Smile

blueberries, peas, puffs, melts, waffles, muffins, any type of bread (croissants, biscuits, bagels), strawberries, raspberries, cherry tomatoes

I forget if he can do dairy or not....cubed cheese is a hit in our house.

Strawberries are the current favorite. Whole wheat pita with hummus, eggs (either scrambled or hard boiled chopped up), french toast, chicken, turkey, quesadillas (if dairy is ok), kidney beans, lentils, garbonzo beans, black olived chopped up, steamed green beans are another fave, watermelon, whole wheat pasta.

Do any of those sound like possibilities?

H won't do avocado either...cottage cheese was a no go too. Let me know if any of those sound along the right lines and I'll brainstorm more.

This probably sounds dumb or odd, but a few months back we went to Fresh Choice for dinner and I let H go for it. He ate things I had never thought of....gave me lots of great ideas. Now it is our favorite place to take him because I don't have to pack any food and he can be as loud as he pleases without anyone giving us a look.

We are in the same boat right now. Hates mushy finger foods. He will still eat everything you have plus. Waffles, pancakes, tortilla or pitas dipped in hummus, shredded chicken, ground turkey, turkey meatballs, meatloaf with no sauce, peas, carrots, asparagus, brown rice, whole wheat pasta, and probably more things I can't remember at the moment.
