I'm at a loss to figure out vegetables for Cordelia's weekly, going to see the social worker lunches. Tomatoes definitely don't work, and she's been iffy on peppers. I've been trying cucumbers, but it's been about 50-50 whether or not she likes them. She says that some of them just taste bad, and all I can do then is throw the dratted thing out. I guess I'll have to go with carrots. She doesn't always like those, but at least I can eat them if she doesn't.

Just thoughts, but what about snap peas, pickles, green beans, broccoli.

Does it have to be vegetable? Can it be fruit instead...that opens up more options.

I'm already packing an applesauce pouch for her, so we have fruit. I'm trying to fill out a meal as well as I can.

I have a piece of string cheese, an applesauce pouch, some vegetable or another, and a cereal bar. It's not the healthiest lunch, but it should get her through to four o'clock when she can get a snack at home.

Pickles might be worth a try. They're probably more consistent in flavor, and she likes them (or at least she used to). She doesn't like raw broccoli and won't touch cauliflower, cooked or raw. I think she likes sugar snap peas, but they tend to be dreadfully expensive. I don't think we can buy them every week.

Thanks for suggesting pickles!
