Foods that are always (almost) accepted...

For Meals:
  • Meatballs (I make them and sneak shredded carrots and squash into them...  Shhh don't tell Trent)
  • Cheese sticks (cheddar is his favorite - the sharper the better)
  • Fruit cut up (peaches, plums, grapes, sometimes berries, melon, figs, or banana)
  • Quesadilla/Grilled Cheese (sometimes I can sneak tomato on these, but NEVER meat)
  • Pasta is a recent discovery - he refused flat out for a LONG time
  • Whole Milk yogurt with oatmeal to thicken
  • Rice/Risotto and occasionally Couscous
  • Sometimes scrambled eggs and potatoes - but not always
For Snacks:
  • Graham crackers, kix, or cheerios
  • Cheese stick
  • Fruit
  • Occasionally thawed frozen peas
 Lately fruit smoothies have been a go, but it depends somewhat on the ingredients.

I also almost always can get him to eat a Nutrigrain bar or one of those fruit cups (Dole or whatever), but these are not really nutritious, healthy choices so I try to limit them...

He will essentially not eat vegetables.  He says broccoli, but then throws it on the floor.
