Got picky eaters in your house? So do we! Here are some recipes Today's Parent editors have tried and our kids have gobbled up.
When my daughter asks that question, she's really asking "Will I like it?" Sigh.
Cooking for a picky eater can be tiring and frustrating. So, we've done some experimenting for you. Here are 9 recipes our picky kids have approved.
Tacos are a hit in my house because my kids love to choose (and add) their own toppings. Our only rule is that they have to select at least one vegetable.

Several of us make this recipe A LOT for our picky kids. This hearty soup is fully of nutrients and protein, plus it's ridiculously tasty. Once my daughter got over the "green things" she ate it without complaint.

My kids loove fish and chips. And this recipe is practically as fast and easy as any of the boxed or bagged versions you'll find in the freezer aisle. Add some carrot sticks and you've got a complete meal.

I tend to make these on the weekend because they take a little longer to prep than some of my other go-to recipes. Served with a simple salad, my daughter always wants to start off with two of these.

I've saved the best for last. My daughter asks me to make these noodles on a regular basis and she usually wants to take any leftovers for lunch the next day, both of these requests are really rare!
