My toddler lives for fruit! She's been into strawberries, blueberries and bananas lately, which I'm happy about because it's all nutritious and easy to prepare (thank goodness!).
Meal-wise, she's been enjoying pasta with tomato sauce and hidden veggies like zucchini, carrots and spinach. Also, anything mini seems to be a hit - mini pancakes, mini burgers, mini pizzas...the cuteness factor seems to make food more appealing!
I also blend fruits and veggies into smoothies when I want to ensure she gets a full range of nutrients. She enjoys helping me prepare it too - pouring in the ingredients and blending is fun for her. I pack in spinach, frozen calcium-rich berries and yoghurt for a quick, nutritious drink.
The big challenge for us is protein. She's not a huge fan of meats - she'll eat chicken nuggets, but that's about it. We're trying different beans and lentils to keep things interesting. I've also sneakily pureed kidney beans into her pasta sauce, which seems to work!
I'd love to hear about other protein-rich foods some of you are doing because that's definitely our biggest hurdle right now!
