[quote=Anonymous]Pretty much my goal is a protein, a carb, and a fruit or vegetable. Many kids are quite happy without their food touching and without sauces (or just dipping stuff in sauce)...it doesn't have to be a "meal" per se but I've done more like a buffet with a couple different plain items (beans, rice, pasta, cheese cubes, cut-up produce) on a divided plate and kids are thrilled. Other ideas: Scrambled eggs with veggies (you can buy frozen chopped spinach or bell peppers) and cheese, serve with toast or fried potatoes. Pancakes with fruit...you can even make a lot of them and freeze for another night. Serve with yogurt and/or soy/regular sausage on the side. In the summer, smoothies (yogurt, fruit, ice, peanut or almond butter) and toast. Lasagna or enchilada casseroles made on the weekend and heated up at night, served with a salad or cut-up veggies on the side. Fill-your-own pitas with hummus, veggies, and maybe some store-bought falafel.[/quote]
