[quote=Anonymous]It varies. We have a rotation of food that we will all eat (spaghetti night, taco night, charcuterie night, pizza, burgers, etc.) Then there is usually one weekend night where DH and I want to order out something like sushi, so we’ll feed them something basic and then eat that once kids go to bed.

There are also foods (such as Chinese takeout or salmon) that one kid likes, but not the other. I’m really encouraging of my kids to try foods, but do not make them eat something they do not like. So I’ll offer leftovers to the one who doesn’t like what is being served.

Then we also have nights where we’ll have the same meal but slightly varied. E.g. adults will add beans and veggies in their quesadillas, but kids will have just cheese/chicken. Or we have grilled chicken over a salad and they eat it just as chicken with sides.

So basically it varies! My kids (9 and 7) aren’t the most adventurous, but they are pretty good overall and we try to make mealtimes enjoyable. [/quote]
