[quote=Anonymous]I also struggle with this issue, and the comments of the PP who railed against the processed food (without providing any useful suggestions along with his/her criticism) were unhelpful. One thing I do to balance the processed items (like fish sticks or nuggets) is to set out raw or very plain foods: walnuts or almonds, cheese cubes, carrot sticks. Not everything has to be a prepared item - in fact some of my kids like it better that way. Also when I can I buy thick sliced cold cuts (like ham or turkey) at Whole Foods and they will happily eat that. Finally, I often make a big pot of lentils and rice, and that lasts us for a few days. If I can make black beans from scratch (or use cans if I didn't make the beans in advance), then we'll have that with brown rice, tortillas and cheese. [/quote]
