Tyler - Breakfast Week 1 Taste Test

Mission:  Tyler's Paleo Breakfast

On Sunday (I picked the weekend since we have more time) we started the morning with a taste test to determine what Tyler "likes."  Today our test is eggs.  Tyler used to love eggs but hasn't ate them lately.  I blindfolded Tyler (he thought this game was fun) and gave him a glass of milk to rinse his palate between bites of his taste test. 

Bite 1 - Plain scrambled eggs
Bite 2 - Scrambled eggs with cheese
Bite 3 - Scrambled eggs with honey

On bite 1 Tyler said he liked the eggs.
Both bites 2 & 3 Tyler spit out. 

I asked if he would eat eggs every morning this week and he agreed.

Let me tell you a little bit about Tyler.  Tyler is obsessed with football.  He wants to play football, work out and have muscles like football players.  He runs around the house and does push-ups and tells me he is working out--its so cute!  So lately we have been discussing how he is not eating enough protein for his muscles.  Tyler wants to eat healthy to be like a football player but his palate is addicted to sugar.  It's my fault for allowing him to eat that junk over the last few years ...but I am determined to get him healthy now!!!
