Need more breakfast options for my 16 month old

What do you give your toddler for breakfast. I'm running out of ideas and hes getting bored!

Right now we do:

Waffles
Pancakes
Muffins
Cereal
Yogurt

He doesnt like eggs. What else?

Your DS is doing better than mine Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

My DS HATES eggs too, I try constantly. He's not a fan of pancakes either.

He eats:
french toast sticks (almost every day Chat Icon )
sometimes I'll give him a yogurt or a container of baby food
cheerios
nutri-grain bar
breakfast sausage
mini-waffles

I forgot DS likes cinnamon raisin toast with cream cheese too. He doesnt eat oatmeal though. I will probably try it again soon.

DS doesn't like eggs that much when served alone. But if I make a spinach omelette with cheese, he'll gobble it up.

I defrost a tiny bit of chopped spinach (I keep frozen veggies in a ziplock and defrost a little at a time for DS's meals) Then I mix it in with the eggs when scrambling them. Before they're done cooking, I sprinkle a little shredded cheese (cheddar, taco flavored, mozz... whatever I have in the fridge) <-those are store bought, preshredded cheeses btw...I think the omelette is delish and so does he.

Add cheese to the eggs... that may help. My son loves them scrambled soft with a slice of cheese melted over them.

Oatmeal?
Fruit and yogurt dip?

-cinnimon raisen bread toasted with cream cheese and jelly or hummas.
-biscuits
-french toast

every morning my son pretty much has the same thing. He has fresh fruit with oatmeal and milk and then a half of a waffle, piece of CRaisen toast, french toast, few biscuits ect

My son loves eggs but I don't give him eggs for breakfast ever! I usually make him a fritata for lunch or dinner when he does have them

DS is so picky about breakfast. He's obsessed with cereal bars and almost always asks for that. Occasionally he'll eat cream of wheat. He used to like french toast sticks, but stopped eating those a long time ago.

cinnamon raisin toast with butter, jelly or cream cheese

buttermilk pancakes - sometimes i'll add in banana, blueberries or chocolate chips

french toast

eggs - scrambled, over easy, frittatas, omelets, hard boiled

waffles

whole wheat toast with butter or jelly

mini muffins - blueberry, chocolate chip, banana, things like that

bagel with cream cheese and lox

When you say oatmeal do you mean regular oatmeal or baby oatmeal?

I think what you have listed already is a pretty good variety. My DD (2.5) has cereal pretty much everyday. I do buy the variety boxes so she can pick something different. Once a week we usually have french toast sticks

I give either Earth's Best toddler oatmeal (BRU carries it) or regular. Whatever I have in the house.

Re: Need more breakfast options for my 16 month old

another tip about eggs, DS loves them cooked in butter, if I use oil, olive, canola, or any oil, he will not eat them. cheese always helps too.
