Adventures in food

I am always so impressed with the kids being willing to try new things.  We have it as a motto, so there is not so much battle at mealtime.  I'm okay with the kids not liking every food, after all, who does?  I just want them to try it before refusing!

It seems that if I make all our plates the same, all on adult glass plates, that the kids are much more willing participants.  And the best part is, they like it! They really like it!

Lately, a couple of our more adventuresome meals for them have been baked salmon, broccoli, and rice pilaf; artichokes with lemon-butter sauce; coconut macaroons - the kids LOVE these (and so do I!); chicken basil sausage with rice, beans, and broccoli.  Fruits are always a hit, and they are fortunately willing to try almost anything these days.  Sofia too, she enjoys trying most things that we are eating, and that little one LOVES to eat!!  We are so blessed!
