Is your toddler getting enough protein? π€ Dietitian mom toddlerdietitiantiff helps us break it down!
What many parents donβt realize is that toddlers typically only need about 13g per day, which can easily be achieved with balanced meals and snacks!
Hereβs an example for how 13g can be met π
π½οΈ Breakfast β 1 tbsp peanut butter on whole grain bread & strawberries = 6g
π½οΈ Lunch β grilled cheese fold over, grapes & cucumber slices = 5g
π½οΈ Snack β apple sticks, 2 tbsp greek yogurt & cinnamon = 3g
π½οΈ Dinner β ΒΌ cup black beans, 2 tbsp brown rice, 1 tbsp shredded cheese & halved tomatoes = 6g
π This totals to 20g of protein, so even with their little bites and unfinished plates, they are STILL reaching their protein goals.
β
TIP: Try our Protein pouches for a quick and easy way to add 3-4g of protein into their day!
SAVE for meal inspo later and SHARE with your parent friends who struggle with knowing whether or not their toddler is getting enough! π
