Meals HELP!

Hi Mamas, please can you share your go to meals/recipes for your 1 year olds?? My boy was such a good eater, took to weaning so well and had a great appetite.. he recently had a sick bug & a cold where he didn't eat properly for almost a week and only had milk. We're slowly building back up but he still refuses most things & I'm just at a loss with what to offer him😢 The only things he's currently interested in are fruit and rusks. Feel like I'm making a rod for my own back allowing him to eat sweet tasting things, but at least it means he's eating something?! 😫😔feel like such a bad mum. I'm so down about it because I can't handle keep wasting time & effort making things for him to just refuse it all, I also can't afford to keep wasting food at the rate we are doing😫 Please help x

What things did he like before? Can you add those back in? He might remember he liked them. Perhaps basic things like weetabix which isn’t too expensive? Pasta?

Try different textured foods, could be due to teething that he may prefer mashy foods which are easier on the gum. Potatoes veg mash with grated cheese, can also roll these up into balls as an alternative texture Meat soup or veg soup, warming foods with seasoning Lentils and pulses Sausages and beans Home made chips with seasoning Star pasta thick soup with chunky veg Shepard's pie Baked casserole Fish and greens Apple banana muffins Egg boiled or omelette with meat and veg Sandwiches Sushi Rice and cooked veg and meat or lentils Noodles with butter sauce Oat porridges with seasoning Jacket potatoes, tuna, cheese and beans You can give whatever you're eating at meals with no salt or little salt if baby is 1 so you don't have to cook separate

So my LO likes to eat everything his 2 year old sister is having, recently he has been loving a cheesy egg wrap, he also loves salmon/ chicken with mash, Lentils with rice, Tomato pasta, Shephards pie, peanut butter toast
