My 6-year-old has been an incredibly picky eater lately. EVERY night at dinner, it is a fight. It is not enjoyable for anyone. Even if I make something he likes, like pancakes, he finds something to complain about/not eat. Frankly, it is driving us CRAZY. I do not enjoy the fight every evening.
Now, my other kids love almost everything I make. In fact, after getting home from a 2-week vacation this week, my 11-year-old son said “YAY! We get a homemade meal!” So at least most people in the house appreciate what I make.
Well, one thing my 6-year-old likes is tater tots. I am not a fan of traditional tater tot casserole. I saw a recipe on Pinterest with chicken and it looked creamy, so I thought I could eat it too. Well, it was successful. It turned out delicious! As you can see, it was a bit messy in my pan, but that was because I forgot the ranch seasoning, so I had to mix it in after I had it in the pan – Oops! I love my stoneware pan though – cleans up sooooo EASY!
This will be made again here. If the 6-year-old will eat it without a fight, then it is a winner around here! YUM!
