I've always been pretty lucky when it comes to meal time, my little guy would try about anything and usually like it. But lately he has developed the picky gene and getting him to eat even the stuff he usually likes is a challenge. Of course we have to result to losing bedtime snacks and other such punishments when he doesn't eat his dinner, but adding a little excitement to what we are eating also seems to help. The other night I made wiener boats for dinner. To make them a little more fun I added a sail to each "boat". Zach loved them! I thought next time I'd make it even more fun and turn it into a pirate-themed dinner and we could all speak pirate lingo. Hey, anything to get the little ones to eat, right?

| To make these little beauties all you have to do is split a hotdog in half, top it with mashed potatoes (I use instant) and cheese. Then I cut up a red and orange pepper and skewed it with a shish kabob skewer and stuck into the middle of my creation. I then inserted it into the oven until the hotdogs were heated through and the cheese was melted. Voila, instant pirate dinner! |
