[quote=Anonymous]We usually have two options for the main meal at dinner because I don't eat meat and the rest of the family does. (Funny that no child has ever opted for lentil meatballs or mushroom stroganoff!) We usually share the veggies/sides and I'll put out an assortment if I'm trying to clean out the fridge! That used to be the only option. My two boys would rather starve than eat a few dishes, tho, and they're in that window where they just need to eat. (They play a ton of sports and are crazy hungry and ridiculously skinny.) I've allowed them to warm up leftovers from the fridge on nights when they just can't stomach the main meal. So they get leftover chicken instead of salmon or cold steak from last night instead of tonight's ribs. Taking this option makes them ineligible for dessert, but they think that's fine.[/quote]
