Maevy Menu

You've always been a great eater, although sometimes you go on strikes. A couple weeks ago it was vegetables. Last week it was chicken. The trick is letting you watch mommy or daddy eat it first. Then we just ignore you a little and keep eating. You usually go ahead and try the new food on your tray and like it. Last night you ate and enjoyed (at for a little while) some turkey meatball with marinara sauce. But when you are done, you are done. You pick up the little piece of food and slowly, but dramatically drop it on the floor- always on the right side and always with your right hand.

I've always made the majority of your food or at the very least bought healthy/fresh ingredients. I wouldn't feed you anything that I wouldn't eat myself. No processed baby food for you.

Here's the full list of everything that I could think of that you've eaten-
Pureed foods-
asparagus
green beans
peas
broccoli
sweet potatoes
white pototoes
buttternut squash
zucchini
cauliflower
avocado
parsnips
ground turkey
apples
blueberry
black cherries
blackberries
raspberries
bananas
stock veggies (leaks, asparagus, sweet potatoes)
oatmeal
rice cereal

Recently, you've been eating more grown-up food-
Everything above just not pureed
tofu (you love tofu!)
pesto chicken
turkey meatball
beef brisket
carrots
lima beans
black beans
red pepper
cheese- lots of cheese (you love dairy)
cottage cheese
yogurt
ricotta cheese
cherrios
crackers
mini-grilled cheese sandwich

I hope we can add a lot more to this list!
