Question

What do you feed your toddler for lunch?

Answer 1

The lunches that I fix for my girls usually include,



1) One small tupperware container with

-a few ounces of some kind of meat: baked chicken, turkey dogs, etc.

-half a serving of 'pasta pickups', the kind with spinach and cheese inside



2) A second small tupperware container with

-vegetables. Raw carrots, sugar snap peas

-fruit. Grapes & Strawberries



3) Either a small yogurt cup or applesauce



4) Cup of juice. They've really taken to V-8's new Fuzion. Combo of fruit & vegetable juice. Counts as a full serving of each.



This gives them a well-rounded selection of foods. They don't always eat everything, but there's enough there that they should be getting enough and have quite a bit of variety, too.



I'm looking forward to other people's answers for more ideas.

my daughter has always ben a finicky eater. she wont dare eat veggies if they are hard so, i make sure i boil them to sog them up and also "doctor it up" with spices. most of the time i hide them by chopping it really fine into dishes she DOES like. for lunch: basically alot of waht the others wrote minus the fresh veggies, but i do give her pediasure just to make sure she gets some nutrients. 1/2 turkey and cheese sandwich with no crust. pastas with lean meats.
