If you're a vegetarian or you feed your family that way, this is probably not the episode for you,

but I'm guessing you didn't click on it in the first place.

This is, though, one of the most common questions that I get from parents of toddlers,

and that's what to do when they used to eat meat, but now have stopped.

What can you do when this happens?

This is feeding toddlers made easy. If you have a toddler and want simple tips to feed them

better, you've found the right place. I'm Casey Barnes, registered dietitian nutritionist, and mom of two living in Dallas, Texas.

Now that you've found me, don't lose me.

This is a question that came in from a mom named Mary, although like I said, I hear this all the time,

but let's hear what Mary has to say. Hi, Casey. This is Mary. I have my only one, so this is my

first time going through this. She's 13 months old. I always figured that, or always knew she was a

really, really good eater.

Just fantastic. I mean, I started off with greens first, and then I went to fruits, which

was about 11 months old, 10, 11 months old. Just recently, and from there, I gave her just

an array of, you know, chicken and a lot of turkey, you know, ground turkey and just incorporated all that to all of her foods.

Recently, she's just taken a hit against meat.

You know, her ground beef and her ground chicken and ground turkey.

It's just a war against me.

And I just want to know if it's kind of like normal, will she come back around?

I mean, it's such good protein for her.

I always have her little meat and her veggie or avocado or cheese, something a little fatty on the side.
