how many types of foods do you offer your 11-13 month old during meals?

for example my ds's breakfast is usually: a few cherrios, oatmeal mixed into a yobaby yougurt, blueberries, and usually a bite of something new.

but for lunch and dinner i usually only offer 1 thing. i'm wondering if i should offer a few things like during breakfast.

what do you do?

tia!

Don't forget the proteinChat Icon

We do, protein (can do beans/eggs in place of meat)

carb... DD can make the sign for cracker...lol.

green vegetable/other

fruit

I have a chart that tells me what vegs are high in what vitamins. I pick the vegs for the day so they have a full spectrum. When at daycare, I'll work around the daycare menu.

DS gets a meal. Except for breakfast, he has a waffle at home and about an hour later he has yogurt at daycare.

Lunch is usually leftovers from dinner.

Dinner tonight was a veggie burger, pineapple, cheese and then a cereal bar for dessert.

thanks guys! see he's still mainly on baby foodChat Icon and dinner is usually a fruit and a meat mixed together (yuck, i know). he gets all his food groups during the day but i guess i should offer some more at dinner.
