Success after IF

A meal that you KNOW your kids will eat?

The only thing that my kids will eat for sure is PB & J.   I need some inspiration!

Re: A meal that you KNOW your kids will eat?

  • Pizza.

    (That wasn't much help, was it?) My kid is picky, too!

    Unexplained. IVF#2 worked! Beta at 10dp6dt = 154, Beta at 13dp6dt = 603 Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker

  • What about soft tacos, burritos, enchiladas or quesadillas? I always serve them with avacado slices and sour cream (dip!), since dipping things makes them more willing to eat it. 

    Another favorite here is the typical mac & cheese.

  • these are almost always eaten...but last night he turned down meatballs...so nothing is a sure fire in our house ;)

     edamame, pizza, pasta with red sauce, anything with soy/ginger sort of sauce, pad thai, black beans, any kind of sausage

  • Pasta with a butter sauce. Everything else is iffy lol
    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

  • There are only a few things I KNOW she will eat:   mac and cheese, pb&j, spinach tortellini, waffles, cheerios (and snacks like fruit/veggie pouches, cheddar bunnies and graham bunnies).   

    Yep, that's it.   Everything else is a total crap shoot.

    Because we're fancy like that.

  • My kids eat on opposite nights - they don't like the same things.  

    The only thing that they consistently both eat are chicken nuggets and pizza. The will both eat corn.   

    DS will eat any kind of pasta or mac and cheese, and would eat that every day if I let him.   

    DD will eat most kinds of chicken, fish sticks, hot dogs, hamburgers.  Not such a pasta fan.  

    They both will eat corn, carrots, peas, and green beans frozen mixed veggies, but go through phases as to which parts they eat.

    So hard!!

  • Nothing is 100% shot with my DS.  Sadly.  But toast with margarine, mac n' cheese, goldfish, French fries and chicken nuggets are a pretty safe bet most days

  • Fruit & chicken nuggets.  Oh and nutrigrain bars.

    Alex also loves tater tots. 

    All other foods are a crap shoot.

  • I hope I don't jinx myself here but here are some things Nicholas will eat: 

    Black Beans- I think I would cry if he refused them since this is my go to for him. When he won't eat anything else, I'll give him these.  

    Veggie Hot Dog

    Mandarin Oranges

    Cheese

    Bread

    Pizza Bagels

    Chicken Nuggets

    French Fries

    Mac and Cheese

    Pasta

    Bananas 

    Everything else is iffy- like apples and  grapes and carrot sticks, chicken, lunchmeat turkey, broccoli, pineapples.

    I wish Nicholas would eat PB&J.   I know if I handed him one, he'd take it apart and make a big ole mess.   Hmmmm maybe I'll try giving him one tomorrow and see what happens.

  • Mine are super picky.  The only thing I know they will eat is cereal and yogurt.  Sometimes tortilla chips dipped in hummus.  Most of the time mac and cheese.  I hate meal time at my house.  Sorry.  no inspiration here.
