Picky

I am officially out of lunch ideas for Tyler. The three things he does eat he is getting burnt out on. I have been trying new things here and there but it just ends up being a waste. I am getting very frustrated! He will eat ramon noodles, fried rice(one certain brand only) and salisbury steak.  The list I have tried for lunch is mac and cheese, corn dogs, peanut butter and jelly, sandwiches, nachos, pizza, chicken nuggets, fish sticks,  spaghetti Os, grilled cheese, grilled chicken, hamburgers, and the list counties. He does eat whatever vegetable I put with it but doesn't get full just off that. So after lunch he wants to snack the whole time up till dinner time. I am trying to find a website with kid lunch ideas but haven't came across any. He eats fresh fruit for his snacks and also gets a package of fruit snacks, eats veggie crackers or goldfish snacks.  So any help, tips, or meal ideas is welcome. I'm all out.

Picky Eater

What do you do when your 2 year old turns into a picky eater? He has never been bad but all of a sudden he is awful. Dinner and lunch are the worst time of the day. He loves his fruits and veggies and will eat them no questions asked. But add anything else to the mix and he has a melt down.  I can get him to eat ramen noodles, spaghetti and some times a corn dog. But that is it. He hates potatoes,roast, baked chicken and so on.  Your normal kids food don't work.. Chicken nuggets, mac and cheese, PBJ sandwich, hot dogs.  It is so frustrating at lunch and dinner when you cook a meal and he don't like it. Then you give him a second choice and still won't have anything to do with it. So I finally said I give up! If he don't eat he don't eat. NO second option.  I don't know whats worse force feeding him or just letting him starve.  Kidding of course. So any kid friendly meal ideas are welcome PLEASE :-)  This is driving me crazy.
