Veggie and egg fried rice with veggie pot stickers on the side
Grilled cheese sandwich's and tomato soup with steamed broccoli with or without cheese sauce (so good in winter!)
Make your own pizzas on bagels and give them different veggies to pick from to put on top such as zucchini, olives, tomato, onions, etc!.
Cheese ravioli and either just put butter on top, plain tomato sauce (my fave), pesto or alfredo!. Make steamed veggies on the side
Eggplant Parmesan
Grill veggies on the BBQ (squash, zucchini, etc), serve with tomato sauce and rice!.
A hearty veggie stew with fried polenta (corn meal)
Nachos with no meat (cheese, sour cream, guac, olives, etc)
Cheese quesidillas
All bean chili
Baked mac and cheese and a big salad on the side
Most of these are pretty kid friendly (grilled cheese!) but you will also get them to venture out to try some different things (fried polenta!)Www@FoodAQ@Com
