Vegetarian Family Meals and Menus

It can be tough coming up with vegetarian menus for young children to eat. Kids are notoriously picky eaters. The following are by no means gourmet, but they work for me. We eat eggs and cheese, so these are ovo-lacto vegetarian meals. There are two (small) kids and two adults in our family, so these meals are sized for that. All of these meals are very humble, but it took me some time to figure them out. I hope this blog will be useful to other parents.

Mac & Cheese

  • Macaroni & Cheese (the classic Kraft box with powdered yellow cheese)
  • Green beans
  • Fresh fruit - what have you
  • Goldfish or other crackers
Cook the mac & cheese according to the directions on the box. I use whole milk and butter. Heat the green beans, which Bobby loves. I know it's a cliché but it's still a very kid friendly and easy meal.
