I just wing it....I have a general idea of what I'm serving that week but I don't know the exact details. For example, a roast chicken cooked on Sunday gave them a lunch of chicken and potatoes one day and chicken parmigiana another day!

At those ages, I'd give soft fruits (banana, strawberries,raspber ries,blueberries,kiw i etc) cooked not raw veggies, soft veggies like mushrooms and I'd be starting cucumber, avocado and pepper slices. Snacks like pudding, yogurt, applesauce, soft cookies, cheese, crackers, apple crisp, banana or zucchini blueberry loaf, muffins, bagels, toast, eggos, pancakes. Meals like casseroles (kids love cheese...who doesn't?!), soups, potatoes with slow cooked tender meat, sandwiches, pasta with spaghetti sauce or cheese, ham, chicken, chili, stews etc.

If you want more veggies in their diet, you can "hide" it in baked goods, soups, chili and stews.
