4 Quick and Easy Meals my Picky Eater LOVES

Do you have a picky eater? I do. Also, I must admit I am a picky eater myself. It is hard feeding a picky eater. I learned to simply find what the child likes instead of fitting over food. Your main goal should be to get your child to eat. I remember I use to stress myself out about how or what I am going to make to get him to eat until a lightbulb went off. He must eat and I am not going to kill myself by jumping through hoops. The nights he doesn’t want to eat what I cooked, I give him either leftovers or cereal. Not sugary cereal, I tend to buy healthy cereal such as Honey Nut Cheerios. Through patience and persistence I found my picky eater loves 3 meals which are quick and easy to make.

Here are the 4 meals my picky eater loves:

1. Tuna on Toast


2. Baked Ziti


3. Spaghetti


4. Baked Chicken and Rice

2 Steps to take to Parenting Effectively

As parents whether we want to acknowledge it or not, our job is to teach our children to be responsible, self-sufficient and productive adults. These lessons should not begin at age 18 instead they should be lessons over the entire course of their childhood.


How do I teach my child to become self-sufficient?

I have written 2 articles which explain how to incorporate effective parenting skills to help you get your family organized. They are as follows:

1) Delegation
2) Example of How to Teach Kids to Help you with Tasks

Each of the about mentioned articles use real world examples that can you can use to effectively parent using resources which are readily available to you. It takes a little work to implement these family organizing strategies and will prove invaluable once incorporated into your busy lifestyle.

Delegation

As a Mom, we get so caught up in taking care of everyone else literally and figuratively. By getting caught up, I mean we take on their problems as our own even neglecting our own needs. We are responsible for many people, but we shouldn’t take on everyone’s problem. If we do, how are they going to learn to take care of themselves?

What is delegation? It means to allow another person to perform tasks to aid in getting things done. Through delegation we can teach our family to be independent and self-sufficient. Of course, before delegating tasks you must consider the person’s age and maturity.

Experiment!

1. Think of several tasks you do for your child
2. Write them done
3. Are there any of the tasks on the list that they could start doing for themselves?
4. If they can’t completely do it alone, can you teach them to do a portion to help you get more tasks done?

I really encourage you start delegating task. Even if it is tough at first helping your child learn what is expected of him or her, the benefits of someone else completing tasks besides you will be very rewarding. You will experience peace and complete tasks quicker.
