Toddler Meal Monday: Yummy Fruit & Yogurt

by admin on July 9, 2007

Feeding your toddler can really be a stressful thing..and really it shouldn’t be! I know as a work at home mom I struggle every other day in feeding my little one a healthy meal that she will enjoy (especially for lunch). I think the problem is we get into a routine of making chicken nuggets and tater tots way too often, and neglect other much healthier food groups because they seem harder to prepare, or our toddler just may not like them…so we make whats quick, and something they will eat.

Each week I am setting out to make a new meal for my toddler that is healthy and hopefully, something she will love to eat :)

This weeks meal is: Yummy Fruit and Yogurt!

As simple as it is, this is one meal my daughter loves to eat up, but I often forget all about it. There a couple great things about Yummy Fruit & Yogurt.

1. Easy and quick to make

2. Inexpensive (Get yogurt & fruit on sale)

3. Healthy

4. Can be made as a breakfast, lunch, or snack

5. Mommy likes it too!

For lunch I whip up this meal in about 2 minutes.

Ingredients:

1 Cup Yogurt (Any flavor your toddler likes)

2. 3 or 4 strawberries halved

3. 1 Half Banana (or whole if you will be enjoying some too!)

Simply mix the yogurt, strawberries, and banana up in a bowl and serve :)

For lunch I would also serve this with a half sandwich of peanut butter on wheat.

This is an extra large serving below (enough for 2 to share)

My toddler LOVES this and this is a great way to get some extra fruits in their diet.

Enjoy!
