[quote=Anonymous]I like to make a big tray of chicken legs on the weekend and put them in the fridge. They are eaten cold, sometimes 3-4 at a time.

I hard boil and peel a dozen eggs at a time. I used to put them nicely on a plate with like carrots and peppers but wised up when they would eat the eggs and leave the veggies.

My boys like sandwiches but get bored so I have to rotate the deli meat - one week turkey, the next week roast beef, etc. I also often pre-boil 12 hot dogs and wrap them in the fridge. Then all they have to do is nuke for 30 seconds and find a bun.

Lately my boys have been into trail mix. I’m astonished at the quantity they can eat but it’s easy to keep in the house and does not go bad.

For carbs, they will eat cereal but it’s not their favorite. They like frozen waffles, bagel bites, hot pockets, basically sodium vehicles. Bagels and bread usually as part of a sandwich or with hard boiled eggs - not usually on their own. This week I bought biscuits at Whole Foods and I was surprised they did not want to eat them.
