[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That's a great idea to get creative with sauces. Yes, I can't vilify starches or she'll want them even more. How much input do your kids have for the menu? If she's going through a juice phase should I let her drink it to her heart's content in hopes that she'll get tired of it? That seems risky. Bad habits are hard to break. [/quote] You can get whole grain pasta as well as pizza crusts. If she's on a juice "phase," she can have a serving of juice in the morning, then juice mixed with soda water in the evening. Plan a week day dinner menu together. Meatless Monday (great time for pasta or pizza), taco Tuesday, etc. Bad habits are hard to break, but that's why she needs to learn to cook and have some control over her meal choices. [/quote]
