Sun-Dried Tomato and Ricotta Toastie


Serves 1 Prep Time: 5 mins Cooking Time: 5 mins

Fussy Eater Tips: Sun-dried tomatoes have a very strong


flavour and may not be well liked initially, but repeat exposure
can increase acceptance. Serve sun-dried tomatoes next to the
toastie initially if necessary. When using bread in meals, start by
offering fussy eaters high fibre white bread; transition to
wholemeal; then multi grain. Try other types of bread like pita
pockets, English muffins, bagels, wraps or crackers too if the
family isn’t interested in sliced bread or want to try something
different. Talk with your fussy eaters about the flavour
combinations they like and suggest they try some new options,
allowing them to choose what they want to try next.
