I need healthy Lunch/Dinner ideas for DS...
I feed him the same things everyday, unless we have something unusual.
I don't want to start getting him used to Chicken Nuggets, Hot Dogs, Etc... I would like other healthy ideas.
I have a book from William Sonoma, but some of the recipe would take forever to cook and I don't have the time.
TIA!

I don't know how old your DS is, but we like the Dr Praegers stuff for lunches---spinach, sweet potato and broccoli patties....applesauce, scrambled eggs, hummus, etc. What are you feeding him now?

I keep reading about the Dr. Praegers brand. Where can you get them? I have been waiting for whole foods to open up by me to see what they have.
Oatmeal (with applesauce and raisins
Yogurt
Pasta/Parm cheese
Turkey Meatballs
Fruit
Vegtables
Grilled chicken
Rice
Mashed Potatoes
Turkey chili
Baby food when I'm short on time.

They will eat whatever we are eating for dinner. For lunch I usually give them turkey, grilled cheese, or an english muffin with sunflower seed butter.

Re: I need healthy Lunch/Dinner ideas for DS...
Lunch - I usually give DD yogurt and some fruit. Once in a while, I'll give her a half a grilled cheese sandwich. Sometimes I give her fruit mixed with cottage cheese
Dinner:
Turkey meatballs
chicken
once in a while I'll make hamburgers for dinner and she'll have 1/4 of one.
Always a veggie with dinner.
DD actually prefers veggies over meat, so I always reserve her veggies for "dessert" otherwise she won't eat any meat.

They can have whole eggs after 1 year.
DD eats eggs for breakfast all the time.

Re: I need healthy Lunch/Dinner ideas for DS...
My kids usually have some type of meat(chicken, turkey, pork) with a sweet potato or polenta and a veggie. They like peas and lima beans the best but I also give them carrots, green beans, edamame and some other stuff. Occasionally I give them pasta or lentils
