Cooking Blogs

[BigDog]

Can anyone recommend some cooking blogs or sites, particularly kid-food related ones? I'm having such a difficult time getting DS2 (he's 5) to eat these days. He has sensory processing disorder and he struggles during meals. Every mealtime is a challenge and I'm running out of options and ideas! Thanks!

This isn't kid specific but my kids have mostly loved her recipes.

My sister-in-law has found that my nephew (another 5-year-old who has SPD) does well with things made following the "100 days of real food" blog:

Good luck!

Mel's Kitchen Cafe has great recipes. It's not necessarily kid-friendly, just normal food but my whole family has liked most of the recipes I've tried from her. Also, weelicious is a good, kid-specific blog.

Sorry I can't link because I'm on my phone but you can Google either one.

I second all three recs above. We have several family favorites from all three. The 100 days site has lots of school lunch ideas that I've found helpful with my picky eater to help move past pb&J every day. We looked at pictures of lunches together and made a list of components he was willing to try in his lunch.

Just off the top of my head...

From Mel's kitchen cafe my kids especially like the slow cooker beef enchilada meat. They also liked her smoothie recipe but you want to put it in a cup that isn't clear because the color is a little off putting http://www.melskitchencafe.com/my-fa...food-smoothie/

From 100 days they like the baked goods, smoothies, refried beans, whole chicken in a crockpot and whole wheat waffles.

From skinnytaste they like chicken nuggets and other things I can't think of right now.

I also like Skinnytaste and Mel's Kitchen Cafe. I also have really enjoyed many recipes from Wanderlust Kitchen (also not kid-specific, but consistently good recipes).

Modern Parents, Messy Kids isn't a food blog, but they do have a quite a few kid-friendly food recipes: http://www.modernparentsmessykids.co...in-the-kitchen

ETA: I also like Pink Parsley. http://www.pink-parsley.com/ Again, not focused on kid foods, but she has several young children so most of her recipes are very kid friendly, and she sometimes even mentions how she alters things to work best for her kids.
