Muffin Tin Meal

So here's what I love about the Muffin Tin Meal.
I went to make some pasta for Ethan's dinner.
There was not a lot left.
I had 2 choices;
1) Give him the small bowl of pasta and add a side of yogurt.
However, the chances are, Ethan would eat the pasta then tell me,
"I'm full mama. I'll eat the yogurt later."
or
2) Put it in a muffin tin, add some yogurt and other stuff
and watch him devour it.


The bottom three rows are pasta with cheese. Then the yogurt I wanted him to eat, some strawberries and, of course, dessert, a chocolate tart!

Good trick to get him to eat the yogurt. Sometimes I will serve veggies while I make dinner to get my son to eat them before filling up on the other items I am serving.

I like your trick too. My son would love all the foods in this lunch.

Hi - xound you on Lady Bloggers Tea Party.

Such a good idea! My 16 m/o can be a fuss pot at times but this is sure to entice him!
