Foods that are Best for Your Growing Toddler

What Foods are Best for Baby?

Carmelized Onion & Soft Boiled Egg With Rice

I know what you're thinking. This sounds like something off the menu at a gourmet restaurant. Am I losing it? Do I actually think your toddler will eat this?

Yes, and yes!

Spinach & Meatball Rice



My picky eater loves rice. Rice is something I add lots of butter (KerryGold) to for his good fats. I recently started hiding all sorts of veggies in it. Here is a favorite of his: Spinach & Meatball!



Grass-fed local ground beef is used in my classic meatball recipe, cooked thoroughly. The spinach is organic baby spinach, diced & sautéed. Note: spinach is a choking hazard so make sure to dice!

So on those nights when your children only want to eat f***ing roll...give this a try!

Hidden Superfoods


 "He eats brussel sprouts?" my brother said last week, baffled at my 15 month old eating his lunch.


Yep. And he loves them!



Here's a great way to sneak veggies into your toddler's meal:

1. Roast it, dice it up, and mix it with his favorite staple food. Pasta works. Rice, too. In this case I used leftover spagetti squash.

2. Add butter. (grass-fed, all natural - even better). I love Kerrygold brand. Find it in my list of toddler must-haves here.

3. Trick.
