[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here - we started easy tonight. We were already planning on making pizza so I offered pizza and strawberries with milk. Older kid ate everything. Younger kid at two bites of strawberries. She hasn’t eaten since 10am so I thought she might be hungry. Nope nothing. Then went outside to play for 1.5 hours came inside and got ready for bed. I am sure she will be hungry in the morning but at this point it’s a battle of wills. She will hold out for a while I am sure. I am assuming the next week or two will be milk and water with an occasional bite of fruit. Fingers crossed she starts eating real food because I am certainly not making chicken nuggets for dinner.

I think chicken nuggets for dinner once a week with veggies or fruit is not the end of the world personally.

I do not make a separate meal for my kid and never have. Like some of the PP's I do put something on her plate I know she likes if I am making something new. This may just be bread, or a cheesestick. I also always do a fruit or veg that she likes. She eats all fruits that I have tried so far and all veggies except zucchini, except she will eat zucchini if its zoodles in pesto sauce.

Last night I tried a new recipe, chickpea pasta with eggplant and she ate all of it, she had carrots and tomatoes as well.
We are not vegetarian but eat a lot of vegetarian meals and only eat meat about twice a week.[/quote]
