Toddlers ARE PICKY.
Mine is no exception.
So I'm always trying to find ideas on how to get him to widen his pallet and get in all the good nutrition.
Last night I made "Ham & Cheese Lunch Cupcakes".
See, he's OBSESSED with cupcakes. He pretty much thinks they are the world's best thing.
But he won't eat a grilled cheese. The most BASIC of toddler lunches. I mean, it's cheese (which he likes) and bread ( which he likes) and BUTTER (which is the salve of the gods.)
So I made these...

I sent one with him to Mother Mary's house with instructions to toast it and smother in butter and honey.
I'll let you know how it goes.
I love the sound of a lunch cupcake! I can't wait to hear if he like it. Imagine the possibilities of cupcake meals you can create!!

Shepard's Pie cupcakes
Spaghetti and meatball cupcakes
And since there seems to be a cupcake craze sweeping the nation, I believe that this will be HUGE!
