Chrissy Teigen Put Together a Menu For Her Picky 3-Year-Old, and It's Pretty Freakin' Cute

Chrissy Teigen may be a bestselling cookbook author [1], but when it comes to her picky toddler [2], she's starting from scratch just like any other parent.

In a series of tweets [3] posted on Dec. 17, 2018, Chrissy admitted that she grew up knowing that being choosy with her food wouldn't fly. Now that she's a mom to 3-year-old Luna, [4] it's a whole different ball game. "I'm officially owned by my toddler," she wrote. "Struggling to make a *dinner* Luna likes aside from spaghetti and fish sticks . . . any ideas welcome!!"

So, what's the solution to the back and forth of mealtime? Well, Chrissy put together a mini menu so that her "darling angel" could have her options laid out. "A binder of laminated photos with TODDLER FOOD on Peppa Pig plates, A MENU FOR MY DAUGHTER," Chrissy tweeted. "I actually didn't realise how insane this was til I started typing it."

She may think it's insane, but we're pretty sure it's genius. She shared a peek of the menu on Instagram, and if this is anything like what her upcoming children's cookbook includes [5], count us in! Each laminated page includes the meal's name, contents, and price. That way, if Luna wants to make dinner even more fun, she can pretend she's in a restaurant and pay with fake money. So cute!

How to Make Luna's Lunch Menu

On Feb. 22, Chrissy shared a step-by-step guide on how to make fish sticks [7] to her YouTube channel, so parents can DIY [8] their very own menus, fake play money and all!
