    Hmmm trying to think of DDs faves (she seems like your other son who will eat everything). Will he eat cheese? Strawberries? Canned stone fruit (DD loves peaches). Pita bread with dip or fruit bread (DD loves these at childcare). If he has only 4 teeth, would he eat pureed fruit? Custard? Yoghurt? Soup?

    Alternatively - perhaps he is waiting for something with flavor? For DD, the more flavor/spice the more she will eat.

    Hope some of these ideas help.

    Cruskits? My kids love them with avocado.
    How about scrambled eggs, soup, pasta, dip and veggie sticks?

    Ooh, I forgot about scrambled eggs and pasta - two of DDs faves (esp spag bog and lasagne - you can hide veggies in either). She also loves quiche.

    museli bars
    bannana bread
    soup
    sausage rolls (easy to make and can add lots of vegies)

    Thanks girls

    He loves spagetti bolognese or pretty much anything pasta related, they generally have a pasta dinner at least twice a week - either bolognese, spaghetti and meatballs or spaghetti marinara. He also loves rice, so chicken and rice is also on the dinner menu (this is DD's favourite dinner as well).

    Banana bread won't work, I made wholemeal mini muffins today - banana ones & Apple ones - both got spat out, so just me, DH and DS2 will be eating them, DD won't eat them either.

    Strawberries, I'm hesitant to give as all kids get a rash on their faces after having them. I think it is just a localized thing as DD will eat strawberries everyday and always has a rash around her mouth after eating.

    Eggs he will eat, and I even managed to get 1/3 of a cheese stick into him this afternoon. Yogurt is fine, custard no problem. I suppose I will keep perservering with different foods as DS2 will eat it if knowone else will
