Book excerpt: Picky eaters come in various forms. Some are super sensitive to texture, flavour or taste. Some are sensitive to food presentation. Some will gag when introduced to new foods. Some prefer to drink rather than eat solid food. And some may just want to engage you in a power struggle. It is vital to understand what's making your child a picky eater. It's only then that you can provide the right care, such as what types of foods they will prefer. This cookbook focuses on recipes for the picky eater who is texture-sensitive: - She doesn't want to get her hands dirty while eating.- Prefers crunchy foods to slimy, mushy foods- He prefers to eat finger foods on-the-go- And is attracted by the variants of colour in the meal For this type of picky eater, if the food texture looks weird, they wouldn't want to touch it or even eat it. In other words, if you want them to eat, you have to offer foods that are pleasing to their eyes and fingers. The recipes in this book have been developed by myself and acquired from others over the years. They are a great way to infuse your little one's crunchy' diet with rich, nutritious ingredients to maintain a healthy life. They are great to look at, great to feel, tasty, and healthy. They are also quick to cook, with most of the cooking times less than an hour.
