2012 Messenger – What will happen?

Posts Tagged ‘veggie’

My son has NEVER been an eater. In the first year he was all about the milk, crackers, apples, and bananas. He was never open, even as an infant to any type of veggie, meat, or other fruit to be in his mouth. He would get very upset. Now at two all he will eat is sometimes banana, crackers (grahm and other) and yogurt. Everyday I make other choices available to him but he won’t even consider them – not mac & cheese, any type of pasta, potato, or peanut butter. He doesn’t ever allow them into his mouth. If something hits another food and he accidently gets a taste of i.e. peanut butter he screams and wipes his mouth out. The doctor says he is at adequate weight. I don’t know how. I took the dr.’s suggestion to only put food he should eat in front of him with one thing he loves and he will get hungry. After 5 days of adequate fluids(juice and milk)and bits of food I gave in. I want to help him and believe he doesn’t know what he is missing for taste. How can I help him?

I buy veggie chips at bulk food stores, there are green beans in the mix, they still look like a green bean just crispy like a potato chip. The ingredients just list all the veggies used and salt. So how do I make them…I can’t find a recipe on google and I have never even made home made potato chips-closest thing I have made would be home made corn chips but tossing green beans in the deep fat fryer just seems too simple….could it be that simple? I would think that would give me the consistancy of french fries not chips. Please help me, I have a half bushel of green beans and thought making chips would be a great way to preserve some of them.
