The wine is just for the adults
TIL I am 5.
Fucking same, apparently, that looks great to me, shit.
Maybe switch to more bitter grapes, and maybe use something like … a mix of gouda and feta with the broccoli, pour over after slightly steaming the broccoli?
Throw in a slice or two of french bread?
That’s a feast for a king as far as I’m concerned.
A daughter with such refined tastes is a treasure
She’s great. It was between this meal and chicken nuggets for her I think lol.
Aside from the grapes that’s a hella fine dinner. Heck I’d even do the grapes but fancy . Good life choices here. In my day my day was the metal man Swanson fried chicken dinner with the brownie.
Grapes are awesome, frozen grapes even more so. Not only are they
grapegreat by themselves, but you can use them in lieu of ice cubes to keep your drinks cold without diluting them.
At least you won’t have to eat your spaghetti with ketchup and mustard like my youngest wants. We indulge him, but I’m hoping he’ll grow out of it, honestly. Any leftovers on his plate are always inedible because he wants fuckin mustard on all his shit.
Yikes. Both my kids will do ketchup and mustard on a corn dog, but no other mustard for them so far. Putting the combo on spaghetti is… wild. What else do you eat that calls for mustard for littles?
He’ll want mustard on his noodles whenever we eat Asian wok. Because the noodles look like spaghetti. He’ll want mustard with his Bolognese. Stuff like that. Disgusting.
Granny smith slices are heavenly with a dab of brown mustard. Has to be Granny smith though.
Really, apples? We are a honeycrisp house but I’ll try anything.
Apples, sharp cheddar, and mustard is pretty good. I don’t usually like fruit in savory things but that combo is nice. And we are honeycrisp all the way.
Honeycrisp gang, unite!
…health reasons?
No because mustard on spaghetti is disgusting to me. 😆
When I was 5 I also liked the leafy broccoli part. Tolerated just a bit of the stem
I’m an adult and I still don’t like the stem. But I’m more strategic about it now. Save the stem for pot pies, stir fry, etc. use the tops for everything else!
Stem is my favorite part honestly. But I’d rather not cook it, just cut the hard outer layer off.
As a father who fails at trying to convince my 3 year old daughter to try something else besides Mac and Cheese and grapes every.single.night for dinner, you’re winning at this parenting thing.
Thanks! This kid will eat anything. Her little brother is a nightmare to feed…
Pretty sophisticated meal for a 5 year old
She specifically requested steak bacon and grapes. The bacon we thought was kinda weird for dinner, but it was a surprisingly satisfying addition.
The next few days will have to be salads to counter the fat though.
Does she eat salad?
Loves it. Been requesting it since she was 2 basically.
Pretty solid meal. Looks fancy. I agree with whoever said grape juice in a wine glass. Anything in a wine glass makes it fancy, actually.
I am trying to remember what my kids wanted at that age. I think they mostly would have requested chili. Did feed them lots of different things and all grew up with good broad palates.
Weirdly my daughter (whose meal this is) used to like spicy food. Especially pork rinds and spicy pickles, but now she won’t eat it. Being a kid is a funny thing.
Add asparagus, shrimp and proper dill and garlic pickles and you have my kid as well. Oh and cheese.
Idk if she has had dill yet… I can say for sure she likes cheese and asparagus (but the pictures cheese is melted Velveeta so it definitely doesn’t count).
Velveeta isn’t cheese it’s cheez but it’s got the calcium for the wee bones in her spooky skeleton.
Thank! Doot doot. #calcim
I am just here to say the shock value of recognizing wine and reading its a menu for a 5yo is working.
I’m glad someone is reading closely.
I have hope for the younger generations.
