[quote=Anonymous]We have this applegates chicken nuggets at home and I was checking the label today for how much iron there is in a serving (and saving size) and was bummed it is so little. Plus, 7 nuggets is a lot! My child could certainly eat all seven, but then she would probably not have any room for veggies and fruits. I usually give her 3 or 4. At dinner she usually has some type of meat, usually chicken (cooked by me). But for example, yesterday I served some chicken breast stew and she had like 5 or 6 small (bite) pieces. There is usually the amount of meat she eats and it seems pretty normal to me given the rest of the meal and her size. But now I am wondering if she is getting enough iron? How do you people make sure your kids are getting enough iron? She eats lots of veggies - celery, carrots, bell pepper, broccoli, salads (greens), etc. I also don't serve any milk with her meals, besides breakfast. Tia![/quote]
