Marissa has turned into a little bit of a picky eater lately. Despite my efforts of giving her well rounded, home cooked meals. If she doesn't want something (though she may have LOVED it the day before) she will refuse to eat it and it gets thrown to the floor. The other night I made shrimp alfredo and she wanted nothing to do with it. Last night I decided to try again and she couldn't get enough. She even ate the shrimp, so I'm glad to announce that she does not have any shellfish allergies. :-D
I love, love, love pasta...so she is officially my kid!
At 13.5 months old, here's Marissa's list of favorite/not so favorite foods:
Favorites (depending on the day, of course):
- Sausage - for some reason this kid loves sausage
- Cheddar Cheese
- Kiwi
- Banana - she likes eating them whole now and she likes them green like her mama. She won't eat them if they get too brown, we leave those for daddy
- Peanut Butter - she eats it by the spoon full, that's my girl!
- Apples
- Beans of almost any kind - kidney, pinto, black, etc.
- Cucumbers
- Pears
- Peaches
- Peas
- Sweet Potato - steamed
- Avocado - the fresher the better!
- Grapes - green or red
- Applesauce (she LOVES pomegranate apple sauce with no sugar added)
- Carrots - steamed
- Tomatoes
- Blueberries
- Grilled cheese sandwiches
- PB&J Sandwiches
- Strawberries - though we have tried limiting them due to diaper rashes during teething. We aren't sure but it may make it worse per the pediatrician. Which is a total bummer since she loves strawberries.
Favorite Snacks:
- Yogurt Melts
- Cheerios
- Crunchies - Tomato flavored and Veggie flavored (I concur that they are tasty!)
- Veggie Straws
- Raisins
Not So Favorites/Hit or Miss:
- Broccoli
- Green beans
- Hamburger
- Meat loaf
- Ham or Turkey
- Chicken
- We have been unsuccessful at her eating spaghetti, which is just crazy to me!
- Zucchini - this used to be a favorite of hers but it became hit or miss towards the end of veggie season
