My Picky Little Eater

My daughter is now just under 19 months. Many other children I know around her age are eating regular table food now. I am STILL struggling to get her to eat. Her daddy is getting quite frustrated. I know I can't let her go back to the pureed foods (especially since she has a whole mouth of teeth), but I am still worried that she isn't getting the nutrition she needs. To top it off, I think she is a vegetarian! This little girl REFUSES to eat meat, and she only barely nibbles at chicken or fish. Her favorite foods are cookies and french fries...not very nutritional. Lately, I've tried to feed her more peanut butter to ensure she at least gets the protein she needs. But hopefully soon, i can find a few recipes that she will like to eat on a regular basis. Thankfully, Aradia is clearly not malnurished. She's very active, and pleasantly plump where toddlers should be. But still....a mother worries. If only I could find some more foods she might like.
