Her reaction when trying tomato soup for the first time | MyHealthyDish

I was literally thinking the other day of eating tomato soup with grilled cheese, this looks delicious 😋

My parents’ approach was always “you have to try a bite of everything, but you don’t have to eat more than that if you don’t like it” — it always felt like a good compromise to me as a kid. I’m still a bit picky in terms of what I like, but I’ll try almost anything once!

Now this is how you raise a picky eater. You don't force them to eat, you don't make them feel bad for being picky, you create an environment where they feel safe enough to experiment and try new things. Good on you mom, you're doing great!

It makes me happy to see a parent not forcing their child to eat things they don’t like, bc me as a picky eater was always forced to eat things that made me want to rip my tastebuds out. So, to see a parent actually caring made me happy❤

The feeling of liking a new food as a picky eater is just amazing Edit: The anime can wait, the only food related war I need to witness is the one going on in the replies

Not me thinking she was talking about a toddler 😂 I'd like to clarify that I was only referring to the way she was verbally describing her daughter at the beginning of the video. Nothing more, nothing less.

heres the recipie if you cant find it 6 tomatoes, quartered 1 onion, quartered 1 capsium/ bell pepper, chopped 1 whole garlic bulb Chilli flakes (optional) 1/2-1 cup unsalted vegetable stock 1/2-1 cup cream 3-4 basil leaves Salt and pepper 2 slices of your favourite bread Mozzarella cheese Cheddar cheese Butter Method: 1. Chop off the top of your garlic bulb, leaving the cloves exposed. With your garlic, place all your other chopped vegetables into a large baking dish, drizzle generously with olive oil, chilli flakes, salt and pepper and bake at 200C for 50-60 mins until the vegetables are slightly charred and soft. 2. [optional] Use a blow torch and lightly torch your roasted vegetable to add extra char if you like your soup smokey. Careful not to burn it. 3. Transfer your vegetables into a pot or a blender with your stock, cream and basil. With a stick blender or a normal blender, blend your soup until smooth. Salt and pepper to taste. 4. For your grilled cheese, cut up 2 slices of bread. You can use any cheese you want or have on hand. I used mozzarella for the stretch and cheddar for the bitey taste. Butter your bread and grate as much cheese as your heart can take. Grill in a pan over medium heat until golden brown and cheese melted. Serve with tomato soup.

As someone who is late diagnosed with autism and was a highly picky eater as a child with super sensitive and particular tastebuds, I just want to add that it may be beneficial to explore whether her pickiness comes from preference or whether it's a sensitivity that is related to something larger (such as autism). I'm only sharing this as growing up undiagnosed was an incredibly challenging and painful experience and I hope to spread awareness of the signs for others at a young age so others don't have to go through it too.. I obviously know nothing about your daughter so I am not making any judgement calls whatsoever, nor do I believe that picky eating is only due to autism, it's just a trait that can correlate and could be worth looking into 🤗❤ Love your food channel BTW, everything always looks so delicious! 😌

Parents with picky kids - teach them to cook. Most won’t admit they don’t like something they fixed and it’s a great teaching/learning opportunity plus time you get to spend with them. I told my oldest I won’t make him eat something he doesn’t like but he might miss out on a lot of things he does. He’s 23 now and has eaten stuff I’m afraid to try! 😂

She’s lucky ! My parents didn’t have a lot of money so they fed me what they could. If I didn’t like it my mom would say “we’re not running a bloody restaurant here you’ll eat or or go hungry” I’ve learned to love a lot of foods because of that and honestly I think it made me more resilient.

The amount of ignorant people in this comment section saying she’s the one who created the picky eater is just ridiculous, picky eaters are most always created because they do not like the taste or texture of certain foods , making them unwilling to try new foods for fear of that , forcing them to eat foods they don’t like is not the answer, starving them is not the answer , your just basically telling them that they are never gonna be able to have options with what they want to eat which is creating a bad relationship with food , encouraging them to try new foods and being understanding and happy when they are willing to try new foods is the answer

I’m around her age (probably a bit older) and the main cook in my family since everyone else absolutely hates it and makes plain boring food. I don’t mind but this makes me so happy watching you put in so much effort to make your daughter happy! I truly believe love is shared through food ❤

I was forced to drink milk when I was 6-7 by my grandmother when I went to visit. I got sick AT the table.. throwing up and NEVER EVER drank milk again... it's been 32 years. Same with spinach. I was forced and now won't touch it. Different people need different approaches. I don't believe in forcing kids to eat things. They are people and they have opinions and different tastes. As long as they try at least a bite, I'm good with it.

You know that the food is REALLY good when picky eaters love it! 🤤❤

When my daughter started watching videos of different recipes she started asking for these foods. My once picky eater who used to cry because she would only like a couple foods is now interested in so many foods! I love taking her out to different restaurants and trying new things with her.

Not everyone calling u a bad mom for not starving her 💀

it’s so nice seeing a mother being so tender when talking about picky eating, especially since many get agitated about it. I’m autistic so I’m a picky eater for a multitude of reasons, and I’m honestly kind of jealous of her for having a mom who not only didn’t force her to eat stuff and damage her relationship with food, but also cooks for her with her preferences in mind. You are a wonderful person 💖

I love this form of parenting. Not forcing the kid to eat anything they don't want to. As someone who is a picky eater myself, this will work out in the long run. Now, only because we were a poor family, I was forced to eat certain things I wasn't fond of, but that was my dead beat dad's fault. My mum tried her best to make stuff I would like or at least eat. Nothing I despised. Now, I'm learning to retry foods I used to dislike. I recently had tomato soup myself, and I HATE tomatoes. It wasn't my favorite, but it wasn't bad. I even tried a restaurant I didn't like before and I love it now! This is definitely the way to go ❤
