Need some meal ideas

DD is 11 months old and lately I am coming up blank on what things I should/or could be feeding her.

Could you please give me some ideas of what you feed them for:

Breakfast
Lunch
and Dinner?

Thank you!

Re: Need some meal ideas

I need ideas too, but I've been feeding him eggs, omeletes, pancakes, bread, meatballs, chicken, guacamole, peas with onions (he loves that), carrots, pasta stars with butter and grated cheese, penne vodka ( he loves that too). He still loves the cereal and stage 3 fruits.

Ryan is 10 months old.

Breakfast: yo baby, rice cereal

Lunch/Dinner: chicken nuggets, meatballs, grilled cheese, applesauce, fruit cocktail

We also still give him stage 3 dinners and stage 2 fruits and veggies.

Re: Need some meal ideas

I am no help. Andrew only likes baby food. He gags on everything else.

Maybe because he only has 2 teeth

Re: Need some meal ideas

Breakfast:
1 waffle (blueberry plain, or plain with some butter)
1 pancake (used to eat it plain but has now since found syrup)
Daddy's sunny side up eggs...off his plate ONLY
a packet of plain instant oatmeal sprinkled with cinnamon sugar and made thick so she can pick it up and feed herself (LOVES it....) and sometimes she'll be treated to the flavored lower sugar variety, but VERY rare.
a bowl of cereal w/ milk (with lots of help)
french toast stix (haven't done this in awhile)
and ALWAYS WITH FRUIT
yogurt, cereal bar?
for us, lately it's either cereal or oatmeal and that's it.

LUNCH: (always balanced-protein, carb, veggie)
leftovers from dinner
pasta w/ sauce (I always have some plain noodles in the fridge with sauce in another container)
homemade mac n cheese
chicken tenders
chicken & cheese quesadillas (or beans and cheese)
rice & beans
organic hot dog (Applegate Farms)
turkey or ham & cheese slices
grilled cheese if she'll eat it
AGAIN with fruit

DiNNER:
sometimes she'll eat stuff from the lunch menu
chicken tenders
meatballs
meatloaf
BBQ chiucken breasts
tater tots
baked potato in the microwave
pasta (any kind--red sauce, baked ziti, tortellini with parmesan or mozarella)
Gerber Graduate meals when I'm lazy or in a pinch
goulash
chicken stir fry
picadillo
creamy rice (instant rice made with a can of cream of mushroom soup and 1/2 can water--LOVES it or used to anyway)
chicken marsala
She tries anything we make....if she likes it, she eats it, if not....then she doesn't get it again.

hope that helps!

Re: Need some meal ideas

Every morning Alex has the same thing - plain yogurt with natural applesauce mixed in. If I try to sway from it, she gets hysterical and cries for her "go-go"

For lunch, we usually give her our leftovers from the night before, or something else. These are our usual options:

Hummus with pita/matzah (this is her favorite)

Avocado with pita/matzah

Veggie meatballs with pasta

Vegetarian soup with pasta

Veggie chicken fingers with sweet potato

Corn with salmon mixed in

Salmon or tilapia mixed with rice

Veggie burger/hot dog with beans

Grilled cheese

Scrambled eggs with cheese mixed in

Cheese or spinach ravioli with tomato sauce
