My children don't like every food I fix, but they don't need to like everything. They just need to like enough foods that they can eat a varied diet of real foods. It's also important to be flexible when it comes to preparation. My kids haven't always liked brussel sprouts, for example, but I now have a way of fixing brussel sprouts (with soy sauce, garlic, and red pepper) that they all love. My youngest is my pickiest eater, but we've worked together to figure out <i>how</i> she will eat various foods -- mostly vegetables. Another example: she won't eat plain broccoli, but she'll eat broccoli quiche and cheddar-broccoli soup. Hope this helps!Deborah Niemannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10754242197245805551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21054991.post-75133742214151941362009-07-24T07:59:13.453-05:002009-07-24T07:59:13.453-05:00My eleven-year-old is at that stage where he won&#...My eleven-year-old is at that stage where he won't try anything new. He used to eat only whole wheat bread, but husband roke down and bought a loaf of white, and well, that was the end of that. <br /><br />Got any tips for picky eaters?J.L.
