Lasagne, soups, stews (as mentioned above), dolmades, spring rolls, chinese dumplings etc etc etc.

I don't currently work, but I do make my other halfs lunches. When I do go out to work, I'd do exactly the same for me. I usually wrap them in a bit of clear wrap and he takes them to work in his laptop bag.

I make whole wheat flour tortillas (from scratch), fill them with salad and a variety of fillings including feta cheese and walnut, houmous, proscuitto, imported italian salami, canadian bacon, chilli and garlic prawns etc. And on other days, he takes a plastic bowl (tupperware variety) with him with home made soup and home made bread rolls.

Yes pig's liver. My dad used to buy it, slice it and cook it for dinner. I didn't mind it, it was quite nice.

However, one time the gall bladder in the liver had ruptured and all the bile had leeched into the liver itself. It was so disgusting, I've never been able to eat it ever again - ewwww... I can taste that disgusting taste now...

At the age of 6 - that is quite a tender age of nurturing. It still isn't too late to get him used to eating healthy and not be so finnicky. Remember he is ONLY finnicky because you let him.

Try getting him involved in cooking - cooking and eating healthily does not need to be a chore. You also have to be firm with him - he is there to learn good/bad habits from you. It's amazing how little things can be picked up by kids at an early age and how it escalates into the adulthood.

There are friends of ours, their kids are 5 and 3, and they are eating and savoring blue cheese and black olives.

Have you tried soups, such as butternut squash soup? Don't bother with e cream etc, just prepare the squash into chunks and maybe throw a few red peppers in it, drizzle very very lightly with some oil and bung it in the oven to roast. When done, puree the squash with a bit of seasoning, stock and maybe a tiny bit of sugar (yes a tiny bit, maybe 5-10g max).

How about shakes made from frozen fruit and low fat skimmed milk/soy milk (unsweetened variety)? This if done with the right proportions of the two - makes it almost like a slushy/ice cream.

Have you tried pasta for example? Pasta with tinned tomatoes and ground beef. Use the leanest beef (9% i think it is here in the US). Fry some onions, garlic in the minimal amount of oil, add the beef, season with a little salt and pepper, then add the tomatoes (I always add fresh ones too). Add a bit of JUST bouillion, stir, season with herbs like basil etc etc and serve with freshly made pasta.

To make nuggets even healthier - why not make them yourself at home. You then know exactly what you put inside them. I mean use proper chicken meat, lightly coat them in egg then flour and breadcrumbs. Don't deep fry them, you can bake them - it's so much more healthier.

Anything - I plan my meals weekly. Most of my dinners take less then 30 minutes to make and are always wholesome and delicious. They contain no processed foods/minimally processed and are all home made.

For example, this week I had:
- sweet potato and coconut curry with rice
- sliced tuna steak with veggies and chinese wheat noodles in garlic and black bean sauce
- forbidden rice with braised napa cabbage and szechuan spiced pork
- king prawns and vegetables in a chinese satay sauce stir fried with udon noodles
- pizza (yes, I make the dough at home too, ok this one actually takes longer than 30 minutes because I have to warm the stone up)
- pan fried trout with stir fried vegetables and brown rice
- chilli with polenta

And IF I'm really really lazy, I will get out some of the soup from the freezer I made earlier and microwave it until it's ready. I also have some chinese dumplings in the freezer, highly convenient when you want to make say szechuan noodle soup.

+1, definitely go for the Fage TOTAL Greek yoghurt. Make sure it's the imported variety. This is a well known Greek yoghurt sold in Europe (including Greece itself).

Try the full fat version, it's a tad thick but exceptionally creamy - try it with honey and roasted almonds! The 2% and 0% just aren't the same, they have the same slight tang to them, but are more "watery" in flavoUr.

You can eat it with what you like. You can use it in your cakes, as a filling, or in the mix itself, with fruit/granola, to make tzatziki (as mentioned above), the list is immense.
