    My daughter of 14 months loves to eat omelets and frittatas. They're so quick and easy to make, full of protein and your can put anything in them; potato, frozen veg, mushrooms, cheese.

    A fantastic recipe book is Sara Lewis' Baby and Toddler Cookbook and Meal Planner - I refer to mine daily for snacks and family meals.

    Do you need a work permit? If so, I would check into that too. If you work with the public, you will run into some rude and inconsiderate people. You will need to prepare for that. No matter where you work, there will be nasty people. There are nice people, too. (hopefully!) Your options may be limited if you can't get a work permit. You may want to think of some creative ways to earn money- can you mow lawns or do yard work? Raking leaves, etc- especially in the fall may be good. Also, snow removal. Get that shovel out! Ask around business in your neighborhood to see if they would hire you with a work permit. You will need transportation,too. You will need to keep that in mind. Look in the Sunday classifieds- probably under General Labor or something like that. See what is available- that will give you an idea of the qualifications, etc. When my brothers were younger (in the 70s) they caddied at golf courses. I don't know if this done anymore since most golfers carry their clubs or take carts. My friend's son works at a grocery store bagging groceries and gathering shopping carts. He has a work permit. Also- try moving companies. If you're strong and don't mind heavy lifting, maybe you can ask around for jobs there. A lot of people move in the summer and on the weekends. I hope these ideas help you. Good luck.

    Paleo diet its a diet based around eating real food unprocessed and organic. Learn here https://tr.im/XW30o

    Whether you have or not, what you probably don't realize is that it’s the fastest growing “diet” in the world right now. From celebrities, chefs, elite athletes. Even fitness experts is eager to try it or adopt it.

    And for good reason, because no other diet or eating plan provides so many benefits so fast.

    At 18 months old, he can eat just about anything (cut it up for him).

    Fish sticks, PB&J sandwich, grilled cheese, chicken noodle soup, chicken nuggets, hamburger, hot dog (sliced lengthwise and then diced), sliced deli meats.

    For veggies: corn (regular and cream-style), green beans, peas, lima beans, broccoli (not raw).

    And any fresh or canned fruit (prefereably in juice, not syrup).

    Lots of choices!

    damn bro, you are being a little harsh. anyway, you can feed your kid noodles, my son wasn't too big on spagetti or anything with tomato sauce, but loved japanese udon. he loves rice, wasn't that big on meats but if you cut it up small and it was soft enough, he would eat it. try marinated thinly sliced ribeye or chicken teriyaki. also try peas, steamed broccoli and carrots and soy beans for veggies. i think the key is to feed them portions they can manage so they can easily chew and swallow the food. btw, my son has never eaten any bottled baby foods.

    My youngest is also one and a half and she just eats what everyone else is eating, I don't cook with salt and this way she gets to try everything and join in with the whole 'dining' experience, tonight we are having roast chicken and veg.

    slice up fruits & vegtables really small, try all different kinds. give him crackers, (sugar free) cereals, small pieces of cheese. since you are trying to incorperate all food groups you can give him some tuna, not with bread just by itself. we did that with my son. if you cut up a hot dog really small he'll probably like that. best of luck!

    he's old enough to eat anything. if you go to kraftfoods.com they have a kids section with different ways to prepare food so its "fun" for kids to eat. they make them into shapes and different things like that.

    Kids that age can eat whatever you eat at meal time. Just cut his into small pieces.
