Little Meal Madness... But Alas A Great Idea

OMG The  stuff you will come up with when you have a house full of picky eaters. The littles not the husband. So my latest idea was to add more protein into pasta.

Boil down pasta strings

While pasta is boiling take out a block of organic baked tofu- Teriyaki flavor ( the one we like- Trader Joe's)

Whip out a hand shredder and start shredding.

 

                                    Shred down the baked tofu. This is  about  3 tablespoons.
                                    When the pasta is done boiling  drain it and add a little bit of butter.
                                      Currently Gabriel is obsessed with buttered pasta and cheese.
                                                  So I am sure you can guess the next step...

                                 Mix in butter, and tofu.

Add  string cheese and mix up some more the cheese will melt

          Serve to unsuspecting little. He is so  use to pasta  he will never notice

                                             So yummy ... One down Mr. Super Picky to go...

                                                                           Voila! Success!
Sometimes thinking out of the box to come up with ideas to feed the littles can be frustrating. However, since this worked so well. I am going to be trying this trick with everything for awhile. Yes, expect me to be shredding chicken , turkey, steak, veggies etc.  into all of their pastas for sometime to come. Hopefully they will not catch on for a while.
