We're serving brunch at an upcoming toddler birthday party, and I'm looking for kid-friendly recipes. (I need vegetarian and non-veg options.) For the adults, I'm thinking quiches and bagels, but most kids I know won't touch quiche. There will also be fruit salad. Since we'll be having birthday cake, I don't want to make a French-toast-like sweet dish as the kids' main food, so all savory suggestions are welcome.
Thanks! |
| For an egg option, make mini frittatas in muffin pans. For some reason, serving them like that has helped make my kids interested. It's basically quiche that looks cool to kids! |
| My kids love turkey sausage and I make little corn muffins with ham and cheese that they love. The bagels should make most of the kids happy though. |
| Mini pancakes (in fun shapes, maybe w/ choc chips/berries?) |
| Breakfast burritos. Also, eggs in a nest - take packaged shredded potatoes, bake them in a muffin tray and then bake an egg in each nest. Super cute and can be made with or without meat. |
| french toast (or french toast casserole-- make it ahead of time and pop it in the oven). Also the fruit salad and bagels (Bethesda Bagels has mini bagels that my kids like). |

baked beans are toddler friendly and you can make them vegetarian
pepperidge farm & thomas' also does mini bagels |

Fresh veggies. We munch of carrot sticks & broccoli.
Homemade mac and cheese is good. Fresh fruit. |
| I think you are fine. Just add fruit salad. |
| mini muffins. take a boxed cinnamon streussel recipe and replace half of the egg and oil with half a can of pumpkin. delicious! |
| Breakfast trifles (is this an English thing maybe??) with layers of yoghurt, blueberries and muesli. |
| Kids might go for strata (savory bread pudding) more so than they do for quiche, because the egginess is cut by lots of bread, plus it's served warm. |
| Kids won't eat quiche, but they will eat those mini-quiches. Go figure. |
| Crepes. You can make them ahead of time, and offer a variety of fillings. Fun to fill, roll and eat! |
| Little biscuits and chicken patties/nuggets - they sell platters of them from Chik-Fil-A. I went to a morning bday party where the hosts served that (chicken and biscuits), bagels and cream cheese and fruit salad for a brunch followed at the end of the party with cake. It was great! |
