This is my first time joining up with Muffin Tin Monday. There is no theme this week so I just put together a quick lunch with what I had on hand.
In the cups: whipped yogurt with sprinkles, sliced cheese stick, ham roll-ups, broken up granola bar, ranch dressing, carrot sticks.
The ham roll-ups are a slice of ham with cream cheese spread on them, rolled-up and then cut with a toothpick in them. M&M loved these! She wouldn't eat the yogurt. The first year and a half of M&M's life she had a milk allergy so the only "dairy" she got was from soy milk. She grew out of this allergy, but will not drink milk or eat yogurt. I've tried different ways to present it to her to entice her to eat and drink them, but nothing has worked. I've tried giving her chocolate milk, different kinds of yogurt (whipped, yogurt sticks, etc.). The good thing is she does like cheese. She didn't like the granola bar either, but gobbled up the carrot sticks as usual.
Having the food in little pieces and in a muffin tin made it fun for M&M so I will definitely be continuing with Muffin Tin Monday!
Head on over to Her Cup Overfloweth for more fun ideas!
Yummy meal! And super healthy - very impressive. My son had a milk allergy when he was younger too, but luckily he also grew out of it but he only loved cheese for the longest time. Now, he's 4, and LOVES milk and it doesn't even have to be chocolate. So hopefully your daughter's taste buds will change soon enough. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm a first-timer too. :) The ham roll ups sound yummy! I will have to try that.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to MTM! Isn't it fun? And I love the way that we can introduce a tiny serving of a less-popular item... and often the kids will try it! :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like a yummy meal. I like your muffin pan.

ReplyDeleteLOVE your flower tin!!
I need to try the sprinkles on the yogurt! Looks great. It was our first week too!
ReplyDeletecute tin! my girl loves carrots too.
ReplyDeleteIt was our first time too! My kids do not like to drink milk at all but they will drink smoothies - milk, yogurt, frozen strawberries and frozen bananas are the favorite in our house. All of our overripe bananas go in the freezer for smoothies.
ReplyDeleteYour flower tin is so cute! MTM is definitely a great way to expose our little ones to small amounts of things they may not like but we hope they'll eat.
ReplyDeleteI have a picky eater as well. I cannot do MTM, because I am never home at lunch, but I am thinking of trying a muffin tin for dinners when Anna usually eats very poorly :)
