Is your toddler getting enough protein? 🤔 The answer might surprise you! 

We’ve teamed up with Tiffany toddlerdietitiantiff, registered dietitian mom specializing in pediatric nutrition to cover topics that will help you confidently feed your little ones! ✨

Today we’re diving into PROTEIN! While protein is essential for your toddler’s growth and development, it also helps to keep your little ones full between meal and snack times.

What many parents don’t realize is that toddlers typically only need about 13 grams of protein per day, which can easily be achieved with balanced meals and snacks! Here’s an example for how those 13g can be met👇

🍽️ BREAKFAST: 1 tbsp peanut butter on whole grain bread + strawberries = 6g

🍽️ LUNCH: grilled cheese fold over + grapes + cucumber slices = 5g

🍽️ SNACK: apple sticks + 2 tbsp greek yogurt + cinnamon = 3g

🍽️ DINNER: ¼ cup black beans + 2 tbsp brown rice + 1 tbsp shredded cheese + halved tomatoes = 6g

👉 This totals to 20g of protein, so even with their little bites and unfinished plates, they are STILL reaching their protein goals.

If you see that they aren’t touching any of their protein, reach out to toddlerdietitiantiff for guidance!

COMMENT below with questions SAVE for meal inspo later and SHARE with your parent friends who struggle with knowing whether or not their little one is getting adequate nutrition! 💚
