Guest guest Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 And a Happy Wed. back at you! Actually, you have very good timing Kyra. My grandson is returning early tommarow morning and will be here for yet another two weeks. I think that I'm going to make a mild hummus this afternoon and a mango salsa. I also have some firn tofu in the freezer and I think that I'll dip it in some seasoned flour and bake it in strips for him to dunk. That's a good idea of dipping muffins in a fruit and soft tofu dip. I make him teeny banana muffins and that will work well. Also, his mom buys him those " Dunkaroos " . They are individual containers of little chocolate cookies and vanilla icing that you dunk them in. I found that when I saved the dunkaroo container and filled it with my own stuff (pieces of dried fruit and/or my own little healthier cookies and nutbutter mixed with a little soy milk for the dip) he likes it just as well. Those real Dunkaroos really hype him up. THANKS! Stef Kyra Hayward <kyraseashell wrote: Happy Tuesday Stef! I had flagged this post with good intentions of responding but alas it was overlooked. Sorry this is so tardy. Your grandson sounds like an old soul with his dislike for meat. Yea! At 2, my daughter enjoyed dips immensely. We ate alot of hummous and black bean dip (easy on the garlic) with an assortment of veggies, crackers and breads. Soft tofu blended with any fruit was great as a dessert or a dip for fruit pieces granola bars or muffins that were past their prime. All are quick and easy protein rich snacks perfect for little hands and appetites. Stir frying tofu cubes with braggs, cumin, garlic salt and mild curry powder or paste until crisp is another favourite. These can be dipped into ketchup (it's a kid thing!), ranch dressing or mustard. One of special treats is to dip bananas into slightly warmed nut butter and then freeze for a nutritious cold dessert. There is also a great childrens recipe section that I used frequently in " How it all Vegan " that might inspire and educate as well. I hope this helps Stef!
