toddler meal ideas?

[Marilyn]

As toddlers, our girls ate big people food. I'd cut the meat and any hard to chew or fiberous item into small pieces so they would not choke on it and they did fine. Our oldest loved broccoli. She would ask for more "trees" (I'd cut the broccoli into small pieces that did look like small trees). She grew out of her love for it though and as an adult will not touch the stuff.

Our pediatrician was a big advocate of offering toddlers a big variety of adult foods. Hubby and I like to try new things, so they do, too.
