[quote=Anonymous]My son has a dairy allergy and my kids are young and don't like sauces or dressings on their food.  I try to have at least 2 or 3 veggies at every meal (fresh if I have it, frozen if not).  Then, I will make the main dish which is often deconstructed (certainly the cheese or dairy is seperate for obvious reasons).  Last night was pasta and I seperated out the main components.  and make it like a "make your own".   Last night we had (each in it's own bowl) - tuna, shrimp, chickpeas, cut up cucs & tomatoes, pesto sauce, and sunflower seeds.  Each adult and each child picked what they wanted to mix together.  For the kids, I require that they eat their veggies and one protein at least.  I always try to include something that they like or will eat.   We do this sort of meal with tacos and in reverse with soups (I let them take out what they don't like).  When putting the left overs away we keep them deconstructed which makes it easier the next day to make up some new combination.  Chili becomes enchiladas.  Broccoli gets added to stir fry etc.[/quote]
