The daily routine for a child is one of the most important elements of education, discipline and a healthy lifestyle. The last meal should take place no later than 2-3 hours before bedtime. Let's try to figure out what to cook for dinner for a 2-year-old child, because food should be nutritious, tasty and easily digestible.

Foods that should not be taken for a children's dinner:

  • Fat meat.
  • Smoked products.
  • Fried meals.

A healthy and tasty dinner for children may consist of:

  • Baked fish.
  • Steamed chicken breast with vegetables.
  • Creative casserole.
  • Vegetable stew.

In any case, dinner should evoke positive emotions in the child, so it is best to cook it from those foods that the baby loves the most.

By the age of 2, the child has already formed an understanding of which dishes and foods he likes and which he does not. Try to please the little gourmet and find a compromise between "tasty" and "healthy".

A wonderful quick dinner for kids is homemade yoghurts. They are rich in calcium and vitamins, easy to prepare and digest, and most children love them.

Dinner recipes for a child 2 years old

Recipes for a delicious and healthy dinner for children can be found today on the Internet. There are a lot of them, there are dishes for every taste, here are some of them:

  • Buckwheat with chicken. We cook buckwheat. Pour the washed cereal into the pan and fill it with water so that there is more water by 2 fingers. We put on a big fire. When the porridge boils, salt to taste, reduce the heat and cook for another 15-20 minutes, until the liquid boils away. Boil the chicken (thigh, breast or leg without skin) until tender or steam it.
  • Fish fillet with rice. We cook rice. Pour the cereal into the pan, fill it with water and cook until fully cooked, after which we wash the rice. Cooking fish. It is best to bake fish fillets in the oven. To do this, salt and pepper the washed and peeled pieces a little, add other spices to taste, wrap in foil and bake in the oven.
  • Meatballs with vegetables. From minced chicken we form meatballs, put them in a mold and bake in the oven, covered with foil, so that the juice does not evaporate, and the meat does not burn on top. The vegetables are coarsely chopped and slowly stewed in a small amount of olive oil in a thick-walled pan for about 20-30 minutes, until they become soft.
It often happens that a child who has already had dinner before going to bed again asks for food. In this case, give him a glass of milk or yogurt. At night, the body does not need food, this is a psychological effect. If the baby woke up at night and asked for food, give him a cup of water or compote.

The older our baby gets, the more products we can safely introduce into his diet, but there are still a number of restrictions. Children's menu from 1 year old it should be varied, healthy and tasty, but it is far from being an adult, since the baby’s body is not yet strong. From this article we will learn how to choose the right diet for children from 1.5 years old, so that they eat both with benefit and with pleasure.

What should be on the plate of a little fidget after a year? Let's look at the most important principles of nutrition for children of this age.

Nutrition principles

4 meals a day

A child of this age should eat 4 times a day - this will allow him to form the right eating habits and follow the daily routine.

For breakfast, the baby should receive 25% of the total daily diet, for lunch - 35%, for dinner - 25%, and for afternoon tea - 15%. This distribution will teach him to continue to eat right.

food structure

Now that the child has much more teeth, it is not necessary to wipe or grind food in a blender, it will be enough to knead it with a fork or rub it on a coarse grater.

Soft foods such as bananas, berries, soft bread can be given whole, cut into slices.

Meat can now be offered not only in the form of mashed potatoes or soufflés, but cutlets, meatballs and meatballs.

heat treatment

Fried foods in the diet are still unacceptable. It doesn't matter what we are talking about, meat, cereals or vegetables, we steam them.

So, let's look at specific examples of how breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea and dinner should look like for children at 1.5 years old.

Breakfast

As we remember, it should be sufficiently high-calorie, protein-carbohydrate. It is best to cook porridge with milk or water.

In the children's menu from 1.5 years old, there may be oatmeal, wheat porridge, buckwheat and millet. Those are the most useful. As for rice, it is better to cook it less often, since unpolished, that is, brown for the baby’s gastrointestinal tract is still rough, and white is less useful.

We offer you some sample breakfast options.

Option I - porridge

Millet

Let's prepare milk millet porridge. A serving should be approximately 150 - 170 ml.

To cook the most healthy porridge, it should be cooked as little as possible, and for this it is enough just to soak the cereal for several hours or overnight. Millet is the densest and most difficult to boil, so it makes sense to soak it in the evening.

  • Pour 2 tbsp. cereals and leave overnight.
  • In the morning, we wash the cereal, pour it with clean water so that it covers the millet by less than half a finger, salt it and put it on fire.
  • As soon as the porridge boils, add 2 tbsp. milk, add 1 tsp. sugar and cook for another 5-7 minutes.
  • We turn off the finished porridge, let it stand under the lid for 5-10 minutes and serve. You can add 1 tsp to a serving. butter.

Instead of sugar, you can use jam or jam as a sweetener, but it is better to avoid honey for the time being - it is too allergenic.

oatmeal

We prepare her children from 1.5 years old only from ordinary Hercules flakes. No instant cereals, since there is no longer any benefit in them, only extra sugars and preservatives. But if you want to cook it as quickly as possible, we also soak 2 tbsp. flakes.

Pour them in a ladle with boiling water so that the water is flush with the cereal, add some salt and cover with a lid. We hold for about half an hour, pour in 3-4 tbsp. milk and put on fire. Bring to a boil, everything, you can turn off the porridge, it's ready!

We also fill it with oil and either add 1 tsp. sugar or jam.

In addition, it is good to add fruit to oatmeal. It is better to do this 5 minutes before the end of cooking, and if the cereal was soaked, then immediately after the porridge boils.

Children's cottage cheese

We choose a product of medium fat content, 9 or 15%. Village cottage cheese for children 1.5 years old is categorically not recommended by nutritionists because of the too high fat content in it.

A serving should be approximately 100 - 150 g. You can use children's purchased cottage cheese. If desired, add fresh fruit to it: cut an apple, pear or banana into slices and mix.

If the child eats cottage cheese well, but at the same time avoids porridge, or vice versa, we will prepare an original breakfast by combining both ingredients.

Curd with oatmeal

To begin with, grind in a blender or coffee grinder 3-4 tbsp. oatmeal. This amount is enough for several servings.

Take 100 g of cottage cheese, add 1 tbsp to it. resulting oat flour, sweeten at your discretion with sugar or jam, mix and serve! From such a curd mass, you can form a hedgehog or any other figure familiar to the baby.

It’s also good to add ¼ banana to the cottage cheese - you can just cut it or other seasonal fruits. Remember that for children from 1.5 years old, apples and pears need to be grated.

Option III - scrambled eggs

Since we do not yet offer fried food for babies of this age, we will prepare the same omelette as for adults, but in a different way.

  1. Mix in a bowl 1 egg with 3 tbsp. milk, salt.
  2. Then we take a small jar with a lid, grease the walls with vegetable oil, pour the egg mixture into it and put it in a saucepan with cold water. The level should match the height of the omelet.
  3. We put on the fire and close the pan with a lid. Cook the omelette after boiling for 20 minutes, turn it off, let it cool without opening and take it out. To do this, you need to shake the jar, then the omelet will slip out by itself.

If the baby loves this dish, you can begin to diversify its taste by adding grated vegetables: zucchini - literally 1 tbsp for this volume, broccoli or cauliflower.

In addition to such a breakfast, you can offer a slice of bread and butter. From 1.5 years old, a child can already receive up to 15 - 20 g of this product per day. The best option would be a sandwich with white bread or a loaf, as rye varieties are much more difficult to digest and can cause bloating.

Dinner

Lunch should be the largest amount of food, as we remember, so for starters, you can offer your child a salad. The portion should be purely symbolic so as not to interrupt the appetite before the main course, but fresh vegetables improve peristalsis and have a positive effect on the body as a whole, so you should not neglect the salad either.

Well, if the child is not a hunter for first courses, he will become a worthy alternative to soup.

Salad

In the summer we cook seasonal vegetables- tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers. Finely chop everything or three on a grater. The serving should be about 1.5 tablespoons, fill it with ½ tsp. vegetable oil or low-fat sour cream.

In winter and autumn, we make salads from boiled beets, Beijing cabbage (very finely chopped) and carrots. It is better to leave the white head for up to 2 years - its fibers are too coarse.

First course

The children's menu from 1 year old involves the preparation of soups, both on vegetable and meat broths, so we can safely choose what the child likes. The main condition is that if the first is vegetable, the second must contain animal protein.

Option 1 - beetroot with rice

Thanks to the vegetables included in the composition, it combines the qualities of a salad.

  • To prepare 2 servings, take a piece of chicken fillet 60 - 70 g. Fill it with 2 cups of filtered water and put on fire.
  • Meanwhile, three on a grater 30 g of raw beets (bar 3 by 2 cm), peel ½ of a medium tomato and, together with ¼ bell pepper finely cut.
  • As soon as the chicken boils, salt it to taste and, after waiting 10 minutes, send vegetables to the broth. We also put ½ tbsp of white rice there. Cook until the cereal is ready.
  • Cut the meat into small pieces and serve with 1 tsp of low-fat sour cream or the same amount of olive oil.

Option 2 - fish soup with cauliflower

We choose the fillet at our discretion: pangasius, tilapia or sole. We need 60 - 70 g. Pour 2 glasses of water and put on fire.

1 large cauliflower inflorescence (50 g), washed well and finely chopped. We also chop ¼ of a small onion and the same amount of bell pepper.

As soon as the fish boils, we send the vegetables to it and add some salt. Cook until the cauliflower is done.

If desired, ½ tbsp can be added to this soup. Vermicelli "Spider Web", so it will become more satisfying, but remember that more than 2-3 times a week a child of 1.5 years old should not be given pasta.

Second course

You should not often choose potatoes - there is too much starch in them, it is better to teach your baby to stew from other vegetables. At this age, he can already eat zucchini, broccoli, carrots, onions, Brussels sprouts, tomatoes and bell peppers - there will be plenty to choose from!

We also prepare side dishes from cereals.

Option 1 - vegetable stew with rice and egg

For 2 servings we will need: 100 g zucchini, 30 g carrots, 20 g onions, 30 g bell peppers and 60-70 g broccoli. Finely chop everything and put it in a small saucepan. There we add ½ tbsp. rice, salt and pour 1/3 cup of milk.

Stew until the cereal is ready and at the end of cooking pour in a separately beaten raw chicken egg. Stir the stew several times so that the egg cooks faster, turn it off and serve.

In this dish, as you can see, both vegetable and protein components are combined.

Option 2 - liver soufflé with vegetables

To prepare the souffle, we need turkey or chicken liver - they are more tender and softer in taste than beef.

We send 200 g of liver, crumb from one slice of white bread, 50 ml of milk and 1 egg to the blender. Whisk everything well until smooth. Add salt, mix again and lay out on silicone molds, filling them 2/3.

We bake the soufflé or in the slow cooker on the “steam cooking” mode, in the microwave (2-3 minutes) or in the oven. To do this, put the forms in a baking sheet half filled with water and cook at 180 ° C for 20 minutes.

Serve with vegetable stew from the previous recipe, but without rice and eggs.

Compote

Children at the age of one and a half years are very fond of dried fruit compote. We make it almost unsweetened, since the taste will be very rich anyway.

  • For a liter of drink, we need 50 g of dried apricots, prunes and raisins.
  • We thoroughly wash everything in a colander, pour 1 liter of filtered water and put on fire.
  • Cook for half an hour after boiling, add a couple of teaspoons of sugar and cook for another 10 minutes, try for sugar, if not enough, add a little more and turn off.

Serve chilled.

afternoon tea

In the intermediate meal, we offer the baby something light, like fruit - 1-2 slices of apple, dryers or unsweetened cookies.

From confectionery like cakes and chocolate biscuits, it is better to refrain, since at 1.5 years old they can cause allergies.

And you can cook a wonderful carrot casserole, older children will also appreciate it, so we make more.

  1. Three 200 g carrots on a fine or coarse grater and stew with the addition of 2 tsp. butter over low heat, along with 20 g of semolina, making sure that they do not brown, but simply cooked.
  2. Add water if necessary.
  3. Let cool and beat in 1 egg.
  4. Mix, spread 80 - 100 g of cottage cheese.
  5. Sugar to taste, stir again.
  6. We spread the mixture on a greased pan, baking sheet or fill silicone molds with it and send it to bake for 25 - 30 minutes at 180 ° C.

Serve the finished casserole with sour cream and jam.

Dinner

For dinner, a portion in the children's menu at 1.5 years old should be small, but high in calories.

Option 1 - fish pilaf

We choose fish fillets based on the tastes of the child, remembering that it should not be fat and bony.

  • ½ medium carrots three on a grater, ½ onion finely chopped.
  • In a small deep frying pan or saucepan, heat 2 tsp. olive oil and spread the vegetables to it, salt.
  • Keep them, stir for 5 - 7 minutes.

While they are cooking, cut into pieces 100 g of fish fillet. We send to vegetables, mix. We wash 50 g of round rice well and also put it in a pan. Fill with water on the finger and close.

Cook over low heat until the rice is fully cooked. Add water if necessary.

Serve sprinkled with herbs.

Option 2 - turkey cutlets with buckwheat

  • 200 g fillet cut into cubes and put in a blender bowl along with 2 quail eggs(or ½ chicken), 1 tbsp. breadcrumbs and 1/3 chopped onion.
  • Grind everything, if necessary, add a little milk, salt.
  • Let the minced meat brew for 15 - 20 minutes and form cutlets.

You can cook them in a double boiler, slow cooker (“steamed” mode) or in the oven - the children's menu from 1.5 years old does not prohibit this. Serve with buckwheat.

You see how tasty and interesting food for your baby can be! Children's menu from 1 year old is very diverse. Cook and delight the little one with new flavors!

The article offers you recipes and menus for a child of 2 years old, as well as recommendations for his nutrition.

With 100% certainty, we can say that by the age of two, the child already has his own food addictions. It is very simple to determine this: the baby eats something with pleasure, but refuses something. It often happens that the child refuses food altogether, which causes the parents to worry. To save yourself from unnecessary stress, each parent should study in detail the questions: How much should a child eat at 2 years old? " and " What should a child eat at this age? ».

The nutrition of the baby should fully satisfy his needs, both energy and needs for full development. Pediatricians believe that a child at 2 years old "requires" approximately 1500 kcal, divided into 4 meals: breakfast, lunch, afternoon snack and dinner. The maximum number of calories should be for lunch (about 50% - 700-800 kcal).

What can a child eat at 2 years old?

The nutrition of the child must be balanced, i.e. it must be correctly observed protein, fat and carbohydrate proportions. A clear ratio is 1:1:4, of which there should be 50-60 g of proteins, 10-12 g of fats, and about 200 g of carbohydrates. Pay attention to protein foods, because most (70-75%) are there should be vegetable proteins and only 30-25% of "animals".

When compiling a menu for a child, be sure to pay attention to dairy and fermented milk products, which should be quite a lot in the diet of children of this age. You should not accustom kids to sweet cheese desserts and mousses, but only give preference to natural cottage cheese, cheese, sour cream and yogurt, where there is a lot of calcium and protein.

Along with this, try to make the baby's food varied, because he needs a lot of nutrients for the formation, as well as the development of all body systems. It is very important that the food is prepared correctly, because the digestive system of 2-year-old children is not properly formed and it is difficult to digest “heavy” food: fried, salty, sour, sour.

IMPORTANT: Food should preferably be steamed, boiled, baked without oil, or cooked in a slow cooker.

What to cook for a child at 2 years old if he does not eat well?

There are only a few ways to get your child interested in food:

  • in a playful way(when you try to make him imagine that a spoonful of food is an airplane, a train or a car that wants to get into the garage - the mouth).
  • Offer an incentive(we are talking about the fact that you will stimulate the child to eat well with something interesting for him: a walk in the park, joint entertainment, toys).
  • Show example(children often strive to be like their parents, so you should show how happy you are to eat this particular food and how delicious the food is).
  • Praise your child for every spoonful they eat.(this will encourage the child to "be nice" to you and eat everything).
  • Tell other family members about your child's "successes"(for example, tell this to the baby's dad and he will be proud of himself).
  • Offer to cook food together(the baby will definitely want to try his food, it’s not difficult, for example: throwing vegetables into a salad bowl or stirring porridge).

What not to do:

  • promise sweets(they set the child on the fact that he needs to eat "not tasty" food before "delicious").
  • threaten punishment(this will cause the child to have negative associations with eating).
  • Forcibly insert a spoon into your mouth, open your mouth against your will(this will compare the child's meal with torture, let the baby "poking around" in food on his own, because this will interest him).

IMPORTANT: If the child is not attracted to food, make it beautiful. Each kid will appreciate porridge, sandwich or hot in the form of a bunny, cat or bear. He will definitely want to try his nose, tail, ear and so on.
