Forgot to say; avocado and cocoa? Whhaaaat? Very cool, going to have to try it.
I agree that meal times become a power struggle. A couple of years ago, public health did an "awareness" campaign. The gist of it was: caregivers choose what to provide (to eat) and when. Children choose whether to eat, and how much.
I use that as my guideline for meals, etc. I will provide a variety of healthy (most of the time, lol) foods. You choose from that point on. I will encourage, but not force, a child to eat.
I will have to google some of those "sneaky" food recipes....
Thanks!

I have the Sneaky Chef books too and the secret is to start very small in the amount of pureed veggies or fruits or beans you are sneaking in, like 1/4 cup pureed cauliflower in your home made mac and cheese, then work your way up slowly to 3/4 cup. I have a little boy who I can fool with some things but he's so picky he can taste it and he makes me frustrated.
