Both our kids eat waffles, yay! My 28 mo boy will also eat most meat, yogurt, dry cereal and bread/toast,bacon and oatmeal.Meatloaf is where I sneak in good stuff,pureed cooked veggies and oatmeal instead of breadcrumbs. He won't touch any veggies or grains(except babyfood green beans and carrots),even though he used to eat broccoli,brown rice,wild rice,quinoa. He backs away and sceams(seriously, it's funny) if I offer him a noodle on a fork, so no mac and cheese.Cheese gets the same reaction, a scream and cower.Used to eat potatoes in any form now only french fries. He's allergic to eggs,wheat and soy (which is in everything but mouthwash, I swear) so we have to be careful about reading labels. I just wish he'd eat fruit because with all the meat, we have issues with regularity, if you know what I mean. I'm going to see what impression cheez whiz makes on him on some bread. Maybe your lo would try yogurt, like as a dessert. The "Yo Baby" ones come in 6 packs and they are whole milk meant for babies/toddlers. I can't wait till he's old enough where I can tell him: 3 bites of veggies then you can have snack. There is just no reasoning with them at this age and so it's just trial and error.

BRIDGET--how do u cook the Quinoa? I've read so much about it and wanted to try it. Can u put it into things like meatballs and meatloaf?? FOOD WE EAT--loves...creamchz on wheat w/ jelly, tofu nuggets and hotdogs, any fruit (mangos, pears and bl berrys are favs), spaghetti (sneak LOTS of veggies into the sauce!!!), meatballs (again sneak TONS of veggies in). Having hard time w/ veggies unless its snuck into things, wont' eat alone.
