When I make a meal, it is what it is... If I am serving chicken nuggets, that's what they are getting. If I am serving lasagna, that's what they are getting. Sometimes I give them a choice of three things to eat for lunch - but we all decide on one thing, because I am not going to make 3 different things!
There is one exception to the rule... PB & J sandwiches. If that is on the menu for a meal, I let the girls pick how they want their sandwich made. This is how it usually rolls out...
Olivia - On soft bread, just peanut butter.
Evie - On crunchy toast, just peanut butter.
Sophie - On cruncy toast, peanut butter and strawberry jam.
That's right... all different. They rarely want to do things the same :)
I will not, however, cut off the crusts. If they don't eat all of the crust - fine. But I will not make extra work for myself by cutting it off. Plus, I want them to be used to sandwiches with crust on them. Sometimes they eat the whole thing crust and all.
