Keeping a meal balanced is key when feeding kids (any yourself). I try my best to offer something from every food group at each mea save the dairy of course. I may skip a fruit for lunch or dinner if we eat a lot of fruit for snacks. I do not like pre-packaged food for my daughter. Mostly because I learned that most contain milk, but also because of all the preservatives. With a dairy allergy she misses out on some of those staple "kid" foods. Here's my variation on Spaghetti O's without meat.
Alphabet Spaghetti (that's what we call it)
1 can tomato sauce -- use only about 6 oz at a time (I freeze the rest in baby food jars)
1/4 cup alphabet pasta -- Earth's Best makes a great pasta with lots of nutrients.
1. Boil pasta.
2. Add tomato sauce.
3. Serve with vegetable and fruit. Today she had peas and applesauce.
