A few things he loves
- scrambled eggs with pureed cauliflour and a bit of cheese
- frenchtoast with pureed butternut squash mixed in
- homemade pizza with spinach hidden in the sauce and mushrooms and cheese (he loves helping make the pizza)
- chinese food with lots of sauce mixed in with rice (i cut up broccolli and other veggies and mix it all together with the rice)

our tricks:
we sneak coconut milk or whey protien powder in my toddler boy’s goat milk for added fat or protien.
my 3 year old and my 18 month old love quinoa – they sometimes mix it with goat yogurt which i spice with a little cumin and salt.
we also do daal (lentils) and brown rice quite a bit.
open face cheese sandwiches with nayonaise and mustard work well for both of them as well. otherwise they aren’t sandwich lovers.
hope this helps someone!

As for the soy…yeah, I’ve heard about the estrogen link. Eeek! We’ve seen an integrative med doc who studied with Dr. Weil and he said it was OK to give the little guy soy milk but said we needed to make sure to give him an omega supplement every day to make sure he got plenty of fatty acids for healthy brain development.
