Hoping somebody can help! My children (six and four) are impossible to feed anymore. I'm not really sure how it happened, other than we got really busy. We've been vegan for three years.
Mostly, my children will eat white rice with every spice in the pantry on it (skip the veggies, though!), mashed potatoes, pizza, and cambells tomato soup (yuck!!), peanut butter and soy sauce on noodles, or vega...n mac and cheese. They will not even eat cereal anymore, but will eat tons of bread or waffles, or pancakes. I'm trying to switch them to a gluten free vegan diet and it's not going to work like this!
The only healthy things they will eat, have to have peanut butter. Celery and peanut butter for my son, apples and peanut butter for my daughter. Banana's and peanut butter. They would eat peanut butter all day if they could.
I've tried making my own version of cambells soup but they can tell the difference (I could not) and won't eat it. I've tried different kinds of soups, but they say yuck to everything.
We've tried making quinoa in place of rice, but it's "yucky" too.
I can *sometimes* get them to eat Chili, if it has a sprinkle of Daiya and some "tostito" chips to eat it with. I am throwing my hands in the air at a loss. Tonight for dinner, they are eating rice cakes with peanut butter because they wouldn't eat the dinner that we made for them hours ago.
Recipes are welcomed. Creativity is encouraged.
