  • Sugar-Free Pudding
  • Apple Slices w/ Peanut Butter Dip
  • Orange Slices
  • Raisins
  • Banana Chips

Protein

Yes, toddlers need protein just like adults do but it not common to get a toddler to eat a steak on a regular basis. The thing about protein is if you keep a good balance of it in the child diet, they will be less likely to want the bag of chips or other junk foods that provide no nutritional value.

  • Grilled Cheese
  • Peanut butter and jelly sandwich
