we cook together and benefit together with the delicious meal :-)

But I would probably not cook a totally different meal every night but offer an alternative such as peanut butter sandwich or pasta that didn't require cooking or what the adults are having maybe without a fancy sauce. That being said, I do think it is important to try to get kids to eat as nutritionally sound as possible and that means the adults setting a good example and trying to have the kid eat at least one vegetable with every meal. But in gaobest's house, it seems that all three of them are eating totally different meals so no biggie I guess.
Is anyone using the shakes?
some days we eat the same thing and some days we eat different things. I bought crab cakes for my spouse today but I wouldn’t want them myself! I recently bought evergood sausage thanks to Jaimito’s post so I’ll enjoy grilling it while also cooking the crab cakes, either today or tomorrow. Likewise I took advantage of the 6/$1 safeway promo on corn on the cob but I’m the only one eating it. Like Richard scarry said, “pigs just love corn!”

Just curious..does your kid eat anything beyond cheeseburgers or is this just a phase?
yes although cheeseburgers on roll-ppang are hard to beat!

great concept that I could try although I’m just loving this cooking thing. It’ll be interesting to see if I get burnt out on this in a month or 12.
