Guest guest Posted June 27, 2006 Report Share Posted June 27, 2006 Hello - My cousin (who is not veg) is having a hard time feeding her 18 month old. He is currently being tested for food allergies. So far, they know he's allergic to peanuts. He doesn't want to eat meat. He likes pasta, yogurt, veggies... She asked me for ideas on how to " sneak " some tofu into his meals. She also asked if I had any recommendations for soy hot dogs... She was planning on ordering almond butter online which would cost close to $20!! so I told her she should make her own nutbutters... Any experience with any of this? Any tips or ideas? Hot dog brands, how to make nutbutters, recipes that tofu can be included in without him noticing? lol I thought all you need to do is stick some almonds in a blend or processor and maybe add a little oil if need, but really wasn't much help. Her son's favorite meal is broccoli and pasta so I told her to mash some tofu with broccoli before adding it to his pasta..... I'd *love* to be able to help her out and have her experience some tasty veg things. (the soynut butter she tried not long ago did *not* go over well) lol {sigh} It seems a lot harder to really try and substitute a meat product or something when that's what you're used to instead of a whole other dish that's tasty. Her husband certainly wouldn't want a " bean ball " or " wheat meat " instead of meatballs on his pasta, but he may really enjoy a lasagne or something with burger crumbles added in.... Anyway.. I'd appreciate any help. ~Kort Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
