[quote=Anonymous]I am right there with you sister. I used to love cooking and even considered going to culinary school. My oldest has significant sensory issues and a limited diet. The other two have what are normal amounts of kid pickiness with certain things they don’t like but the overlap between the three of them is basically non existent. I am for cooking something that 2/3 of them will eat and the third can fend for themselves. I often fill out with something from the freezer — eg my child that doesn’t eat meat, I will throw in some of the Brazilian cheese puffs or frozen mozarella sticks to fill out for her. We do things like tacos or sandwiches a lot where people can build it the way they want. Then I try to double up on vegetables so I can minimize the carbs I adore. If I were just cooking for me, I’d make things like lentil soup or a tofu stir fry. I often do that for my lunches or maybe once a month pr so I just make what I want . I’m gaining a lot of weight with menopause and it’s so hard when my cooking for the kids is so carb and cheese heavy. [/quote]
