[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For pp with limited time, crock pot soups and stews.  They either eat it, or they don't get to eat.  I do mix in a bit of either brown rice or quinoa pasta if I think it will help them eat the soup.  No "cooking what they like".  I don't want to raise adults who only eat grilled cheese or burgers and fries, who have never tasted an artichoke or asparagus.  I also want them to get the micronutrients, omega3s and flavinoids that will enhance their health and brain development.  (not just the calories of french fries).[/quote]

Why do you assume picky water who are being made the food they like are eating French fries or grilled cheese? I am a new poster on this thread and I have a very picky eater who for the most part won't eat what we eat, but that doesn't mean she eats junk.  She actually wilbur touch fries or Mac and cheese.  She will eat veggies and meat and pasta and brown rice as long as they are plain.  I don't have time when we are home from work to start cooking a meal (and when I have expended the energy I have been punished with a child who won't eat (and who has problems gaining weight as is).  She absolutely will not touch soup so crock pots are useless.  So what is the harm in whipping up some steamed veggies and plain pasta or cut up chicken breast for her?  It is healthy but it is not necessarily what my husband and I want to eat (we prefer salads and spicy pastas and food my dd will not touch).  We rarely eat with her given the rush to get her fed and to bed when we get home from work, so we usually eat afterward.[/quote]
