My child will only eat..

Fruit..I have tried everything! I like that she loves fruit, but she isn't getting proper nutrition, we started the pediasure sidekicks. She won't even eat chicken from mcdonalds! She will eat maybe one or two french fries. She won't eat spaghetti, she won't even touch meat, vegetables she will sometimes eat, she will eat potatoes sometimes, but only a few bites and then she is done. Any other suggestions?

plain pasta
or chicken noodles
rice
DD is 3 and still hardly touches meat but LOVES pasta

Make fruit smoothies with veggies in them.

The best way to get my son to eat nearly anything is to make it bitesized and dippable!

He even eats salad if he can dip the bites in dressing!

Will she drink a fruit smoothie?? You can hide some peanut butter and milk or yogurt in them. Oh and vegies too!!

she loves dip! The issue is she will not eat what she is using to dip with, she will suck off the dip and not eat.

my mom told me there's a cook book for kids to hide like veggies or certain foods they need into their favorite foods.

the kid LOVES milk! drinking isn't an issue with her. But she won't drink those juices with the vegetables in them. Smoothies may work but im not sure. Sometimes if she is starving she will eat peanut butter and jelly. but again with the fruit! anything fruit she will usually eat. I tried giving her a strawberry banana smoothie and she took two sips & that was the end of that.

I know it's hard but you'll have to start just not giving her the fruit and no option for fruit unless she eats the other stuff first

I'd offer her a small variety of foods (except fruit) and give her a couple hours to eat it.
