Menu Recommendations - Healthy Menus For Picky Children

Is your patience running thin with your picky-eater? Have you had just about enough of racking your brains for nutritious meals that your child would actually eat? Tired of little noses wrinkling in disgust over the meals you've slaved away to prepare? Don't give up just yet! Here are some healthy menus recommendations that will have your kids running to the table when you call "dinner!"

1. Chicken Fingers

All kids love chicken nuggets. Why don't you give them the healthy but yummy alternative by coating chicken tenders with whole-wheat flour and baking them to crisp perfection instead of frying? You can even add some baked French fries too!

2. Gooey Mashed Potatoes.

How 'bout a twist on the old favorite? Add lean ground beef, cheese and reduced fat sour cream into your mashed potatoes. Your kids will definitely love you for it.

3. Spaghetti and Meatballs

Another old favorite. You can use lean ground beef and whole wheat flour for the meatballs or even turkey ground meat. Again, bake, rather than fry.

4. Vegetarian Burger

Afraid your kid is not getting his daily dose of veggies? Feed him a veggie burger. All you have to do is make patties out of 2 cups mashed black beans, 1 cup bread crumbs, 3 tbsp salsa, 1 egg and 1 cup cooked rice. Cook until brown and crisp, place in a bun and add lettuce, tomatoes, etc. He'll never know the difference!

With these menus recommendations, you won't have to battle it out with your child at meal time! Good luck!
