Also we take Annie's Bunny Grahams and cheese crackers and cheese sticks a lot. I don't like the mozzerella kind cause when Garrett chews big bites they get globby and he has gagged on them a few times. I like colby jack varieties. There are a few products at Costco that I sometimes get that are really awesome too. I can't remember the brands but there are these fruit crisps packaged in individual servings of pear, apple and a strawberry/banana combo. Hummus cups packaged in small containers, these can be frozen and packed in your lunch box in the morning and by lunch they are usually thawed out. Great with crackers or carrots sticks. I've tried packing baby carrots too, but I'm the one who ends up eating these cause Garrett just chews them and spits them out. Also there are some veggies chips that sound a lot like the ones you described. I've seen them in large packs and in the individual packs instead of a chip shape they are in a straw shape, which are kind of fun and good for dipping! Spinach, potatoes and tomatoes are the veggies they are made of. Not sure if these really are that nutritious but for a toddler who barely eats any veggies, something is better than nothing.Paige McGuanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568478697831032035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984227573264596253.post-29260414048948711202011-06-13T00:07:21.294-04:002011-06-13T00:07:21.294-04:00Your friend Paige ate all the Kale chips cause her...Your friend Paige ate all the Kale chips cause her toddler is on a veggie strike...maybe for life!

They don't have a strong flavor, so can be added to just about anything (definitely mac and cheese, maybe even baked goods?).<br />I just made William pasta with a sauce of olive oil, pureed squash, mascarpone cheese, sage and black pepper. He loved it! Next time I'll add pureed white beans.

William has been much more picky lately too (entering toddlerhood!). My favorite way to "hide" ingredients is in what I call "gravy rice." Brown rice with gravy (from a beef stew I made, then froze into cubes- good hidden protein! I'm thinking buying some canned gravy and freezing it into cubes might be a good idea too.) and added soft cooked/mashed/pureed veggies and ground meat (turkey, chicken or beef) or mashed up fish. The brown rice itself also has some protein. Also, have you tried quinoa? TONS of protein, since its actually a seed, not a grain.MamaKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11081470701869987222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984227573264596253.post-62665416654483888732010-12-19T02:46:24.151-05:002010-12-19T02:46:24.151-05:00Hi Sarah,

I forgot how easy it was. I used whole wheat flour for the rue and it seemed to work fine. I used some cream cheese, squash, and parmesan for a bit more flavor. To season it I used ground thyme (I thought this would go well with the squash, and it did!) It was so yummy, Garrett wanted to eat it by the spoonful! Just thought you might like to hear a variation!<br />Garrett's pickiness has reached a new level. He used to just refuse veggies, now he's refusing most meat and even his beloved green eggs after a few bites. Any suggestions for getting more protein in his diet?Paige McGuanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568478697831032035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984227573264596253.post-17403298765944359372010-11-04T11:18:14.470-04:002010-11-04T11:18:14.470-04:00Thanks Lee, glad you like it!

I totally don't cook but have so far made all of Andrew's baby food (not too hard to boil, mash and freeze veggies) and he has been so NOT picky...until a few days ago! Now he's like "really mom? the same not-seasoned steamed veggies with a little bit of cottage cheese on the side?" And he's started to engage in a little-baby-strike/fast!

In this recipe, the egg acts mostly as a binder, to hold all the ingredients together. When choosing an egg substitute, you need to decide on its function: binding or leavening (as in baked goods). For this recipe I'd recommend you substitute 1/4 cup of silken tofu (pureed with 1 Tbsp. flour until smooth) for 1 egg, or look for more ideas here: http://www.vegcooking.com/vegcooking-eggreplace.aspMamaKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11081470701869987222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5984227573264596253.post-20114959207440327612010-09-02T14:50:25.109-04:002010-09-02T14:50:25.109-04:00This recipe is so easy!
