Let kids play with their food with these super fun Lettuce Wraps for Kids with Yummy Dino Buddies! This will be their new favorite lunch. Should we talk about picky eaters? For the longest time, we thought that Piper was a picky eater. That kid has been a struggle FOREVER around mealtime. And then in the last year or so, something clicked for us – she is picky. But because she is a foodie!
HELPING A PICKY EATER EAT
We’ve learned a few things about how to work with a kid who might seem picky. These Lettuce Wraps made with Yummy Dino Buddies checks every single one of those boxes. The simple fact that Piper can get excited about this meal makes me happy. But the fact that Dino Buddies are full of protein and Omega-3s puts it over the top. I love that they are full of all white meat chicken breasts and are the start of a really well balanced meal for her.
LETTUCE WRAPS FOR KIDS INGREDIENTS
The whole idea behind these lettuce wraps is that kids can get creative with their food and create a whole scene with their Dino Buddies. Here are a few simple suggestions that will make for great grass, plants, and “paint” but really the sky is the limit.
Iceberg Lettuce Leaves for the wrap and background.Carrot Sticks and Celery for the tree trunks.Red Cabbage for the grass. It’s a fun color that pops and gets them to try something they maybe haven’t had yet.Spinach leaves for tree leaves.BBQ Sauce, thicker teriyaki sauce, or ketchup with a clean paint brush to paint the sky. My girls also liked painting their dinosaurs.
DINNER IN A PINCH
We also love this for dinner in a pinch! Dino Buddies keep in the freezer and are easy to make FAST in either the oven or the microwave. Plus they are 100% natural which makes me feel great. We love giving them to our kids with some cut up veggies before we head out for date night or when I am so over cooking for the week. Make sure to follow Dino Buddies on Facebook and Instagram so you can see all the creative ways kids are playing with the dinosaur chicken nuggets. And find where to buy them here.
