[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am a stepmom to two teen boys. My husband is the cook. He always has a large fruit salad, a cooked vegetable, and a salad. He does meet several meals a week, but not a huge amount per person. People don't need to eat tons of meat every day. My point is, make sure you are cooking enough extras like veggies and fruits and salads. If they are hungry, they can eat those. Also, 19 is old enough to cook or get a snack later if the meal you serve does not quite fill them up. You are not responsible for providing the entire caloric input of a 19 year old male.[/quote] I actually think both the 12 yr old AND the 19 yr old should be cooking dinner for the whole family once a week.
