Do you give your toddlers chicken nuggets

Question

If so what brand? Are there any options that are actually not horrible for them? Sorry for the food questions!
Any other suggestions for easy to prepare toddler foods is appreciated. Just for once in a while when I don't have the time. They get healthy home cooked meals daily don't worry.

Answer

If they get healthy home cooked meals daily and this is a rare occurrence then I don’t think it matters- obviously fast food is the worst, and there are some more “natural” options. But we’re human and need a quick fix on some days where the day gets the best of us. No mom shaming for chicken nuggets.

Answer

I make them homemade ahead of time, bake them and freeze them in a large freezer bag. I can then just pop a few in the toaster oven for a fast and easy dinner.

Answer

My kids love these, I’m not sure as to how “healthy” they’re considered but they’ve been a godsend, honestly. My special needs son will go all day/night without eating if he doesn’t feel like whatever I have to offer, but Dino nuggets are something that I know he will eat with no hesitations.

Answer

Yes, of course, my toddler eats chicken nuggets 😂 and there's no special brand. Yesterday, she had a chicken nugget happy meal from McDonald's 🤷🏻‍♀️ Don't stress yourself out over these kinds of things. I promise you your child will have normal chicken nuggets at some point or another. We're a very healthy household and don't feel bad whatsoever about our kid having the occasional happy meal. It's really not a big deal.

Answer

No way. Buy chicken in bulk, cut it into pieces in their own freezer containers and just take out what your baby needs per meal, boil and serve. Tofu is also a great option as it’s full of protein. My little one loves tofu!

Answer

We buy the kid fresh chicken nuggets and chicken meatballs. The kid fresh brand hides veggies in the food, so the chicken nuggets have chickpea in the breading and the meatballs have carrots and celery. 
Note, they aren’t cheap. So don’t stock up. Try a box and see if your kiddo likes it.

Answer

I think ours are Tyson. I don’t love supporting that company, but when my husband and I compared the nutrition and ingredients of the options we had at our store, they were the healthiest. We don’t get the nuggets though. We usually get the strips though because it’s more whole meat and less ground up questionable product.

Answer

Yeah they are a staple In my house because my toddler is so picky. He eats veggies like no tomorrow so if he wants a nugget he’s getting a nugget lol. We get the ones from aldi they are really good.

Answer

I would buy vegetarian chicken nuggets or make my own ahead of time

Answer

Just get chicken breasts, flour, olive oil and seasoning. You can make them yourself. It doesn't take forever to make.
