[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Help. We have fallen into a rut of eating a ton of red meat because my picky tween likes it. I need some chicken, fish and vegetarian options! He seems to like the plainness of meat (steak) but also savory dishes (meatloaf and bolognese). I’m not that worried about his health - it’s more for me because I don’t want to have red meat 5x/week!

He rejects a lot of the conventional kid ideas (eg quesadilla).

I’m a pretty good cook and willing to invest time, but something like a veggie lasagna is probably not realistic for weeknights unless you have some kind of magic easy recipe …[/quote]

I should add, his pickiness is super frustrating because I’ll make something I know tastes good (like chicken drumsticks) and he rejects it. So I wonder if there are texture issues with things like chicken skin? He was the typical toddler that ate everything, what happened!!![/quote]

I think quite a few people dislike drumsticks. If I have to eat dark meat, which I don’t care for, I would much rather have chicken thighs. But if he’s picky in general maybe try chicken breasts. [/quote]
