How many times do you give your LO fruit a day? How about veggies?

I realized yesterday I've been giving her a lot of fruit.. Just curious where other babies are on this.

Our DD doesnt get much fruit now thats shes on solids. She doesnt care for them, so I try to get them in when I can. She loves veggies though! She eats veggies at lunch and dinner and sometimes for snack through the day. She eats alot of protein the majority of the time- meats, cheeses, eggs, etc.

My LO gets a ton of fruit.

At least 2 meals and a snack a day.

She just loves it.

I do give her quite a bit of veggies too and she likes most of them, but definitely prefers fruit.

I think most people are that way though.

Meh. As long as she eats something good for her, I don't get too wrapped up in what it is.

I've started giving her steamed veggies for snack with a couple of crackers to make sure she's hungry enough to get some in her.

One thing I need to get better about is meat. I don't always have some precooked for her and she only likes ham at the moment anyways.

This is exactly what we do!

Ditto this, too. I offer veggies often, but she rarely eats them. I have been resorting to sneaking them in to quesadillas or grilled cheese, or the fruit/veg combo puree things. I'll keep offering them, though. Eventually it will click to her that theyre good all on their own!

Almost none. He is a carnivore. He also likes veggies and carbs. But, if I put fruit, veggie, bread/pasta, and meat on his tray he would eat the meat first.

Fruit salad for breakfast (usually a combo of 4 or 5 fresh fruits, different every day) Fruit (like a whole apple, Clementine, banana), rice cakes, or string cheese for a mid-day snack. (We don't do an official lunch usually).Mixed veggies for dinner with either meat (turkey meatball or shredded chicken usually) or cheese ravioli. We do mix it up, but this is the general meal plan.
