Hi. I posted a similar question not long ago.
I still need suggestions sometimes too.

Here is what I give DS right now.

Breakfast:

Eggs and pancakes (little pieces broken up on his tray of course). Cinnamon swirl pepridge farm bread crumbled.

Oatmeal and fruit

Lunch:

Yogurt and fruit

2-4 snacks a day

Dinner:

Vegetables sauted in chicken broth so they are really soft.

I slow cook alot so I make ground turkey and chicken in the crock pot. Comes out so tender.

My DD is 16 months and has been picky lately and just not eating that much. I think it's her teeth.

Usually for breakfast she has:

- fruit (she loves all fruit- favorite- bananas, kiwis, apples, applesauce, blueberries, strawberries, cantaloupe)

then either
-scrambled eggs, sometimes with cheese
-yogurt
-waffle
-toast
-cheerios
-bagel with cream cheese or butter

lunch
-leftover dinner
-pasta with sauce or butter
-grilled cheese
-sunbutter and jelly sandwich
-turkey and cheese sandwich- though lately she does not want the bread
-Dr Pragers Fish sticks are a big hit
-Dr Pragers Spinach or broccoli pancakes. another big hit
-yogurt
-plus applesauce or other fruit
or mixed veggies...carrots, peas, corns, green beans is a big hit


dinner
her favorites are:

-homemade chicken noodle soup
-pasta and meatballs
-chicken in the crockpot
-anything ground beef or ground chicken (stuffed peppers, tacos, etc)
-all veggies, especially broccoli

Re: What is your 15-17 month old eating?

Anything he can stuff in his face! He loooves to eat!

For breakfast:
omelettes
oatmeal and berries
pancakes (we put bananas in them)
waffles

*he has cheerios as an appetizer while I get his breakfast ready. He also has fruit with every breakfast (any type of berry, banana, kiwi or mango...and if I'm desperate applesauce)

For lunch: This one is the worst! I just want him to be able to eat PB&J! Would make things so easy!

He has a fruit and a veggie (carrots, avocado, sweet potato, squash) and then I "try" to do a protein:

Grilled chicken tenders
chicken nuggets
fish sticks
meatballs &Pasta
vegetarian "meatballs"
turkey and cheese
grilled cheese
chicken soup
chili with brown rice
