What to feed 12 month old?
I had the same problem. By my son's first birthday he was still just snacking and drinking alot of milk. Cut out one of the bottles of milk and she will supplement with food. My son is almost 17 months old and to get him to eat 3 meals a day I kind of put him on a schedule fora while to start out. I would give him 7 oz milk in his cup when he woke up, breakfast 2 hrs later (food only and some water). Nap, then lunch (food and water/juice). Snack between lunch and dinner. Then food and water for dinner and 7 oz milk before bed. Now we just work with that, and he adjusted very well to it. Here are some of my sons favorites: french toast, waffles (no syrup), scrambled eggs, or breakfast sausage. For lunch or dinner he usually has what we eat, or at least one thing that we are eating for example, some kind of beans (he loves beans, esp. black beans and they're so healthy!), chicken, macaroni with sauce, meat, french fries, baked potatoes, turkey, grilled cheese, mac&cheese, whole wheat bread with er or cream cheese (one of his favorites). It's so much easier to just feed your baby what you are eating for dinner. Snacks usually include mini muffins, ritz crackers, blackberries, avocadoes, strawberries, apples, bananas, etc.
