Feeding an opinionated toddler can be difficult. Add to that challenge food allergies, and it can be a recipe for disaster. Because I know many moms out there struggle with this (this being the whole picky toddler thing), I thought I would share some of Isla June's meals. They are mostly lunches and a little bit of breakfast, and it's all gluten, soy and milk free. So, yes, it is possible to feed a toddler who has allergies (because I didn't think so!)
And I must note, I am no cook. This is me, doing the best that I can.

I try to focus most of her meals on a fruit and/or veggie with a protein. Because she doesn't eat a whole lot of carbs (gluten allergy, remember), she gets most of her "filling up the belly" from protein, so there is always a meat (chick or turkey or fish only) or I use almond/peanut butter or hummus as a protein.
