Many of the parents I work with are stuck in a rut eating the limited range of foods they know their child will entertain. They really miss the foods which bring them joy and make them feel good. They feel that it simply isn’t possible to serve those foods.  

I get it, you want to know your child is going to bed having eaten and you can’t face a mealtime battle or meltdown.  

But there are so many benefits for both you and your child when you expand the meal repertoire and serve something that is going to make you smile, inside and out.  

And it is possible – when you serve family-style.  

My baked chicken and black bean rice is popular with the families I work with as it can be prepared and served to suit both the adventurous and the less adventurous eaters at the table. 

Can I tempt you to give it a try with your family this week?
