Serving the same old things

[GrinsNGiggles]

I have 5 kids in my daycare including my son. All the children except my son are picky eatters. I can make everyone happy at snack time but its lunch that I struggle with. The children mostly want processed food for lunch (frozen pizzas,KD or fries and nuggets). The parents are fine with them eatting this because its the same way in there homes, I`m the one with the problem serving it. I have tried making homemade healthy versions of it but the kids know its healthy and will barely eat it. Any ideas????? I always serve fruit and veggies they will eat with lunch. Should I just be happy they will eat some healthy things?

I feel the same way. Should we keeo trying the healthier versions of these foods and not have them eat it or just give them these foods because that's what they're used to at home and will eat it?
