Problem here is that she acts hungry, goes to her chair, etc... But maybe with more milk I could hold her off and do a bigger brunch - so she's hungrier but not too tired yet? Not sure...

My little guy is on the smaller side too.. At night I give him a pediasure milk ( meal replacement). That way if he has had a bad day of eating at least he goes to bed full
Anyways perhaps you could try that in the am instead?

Ok, Dave is snoring.  Mouse is having a crib party.  So I did some digging.
http://www.recipezaar.com/150057  Have not tried this one, but it looks yummy! 
http://www.recipezaar.com/159509  This one I used the pourable fruit instead.  Then added some toasted wheat germ and a touch of cinamon.  This is what we took to daycare for her b-day.  They were a big hit.  I love this website.  It will sort things according to various criteria, including toddler friendly.   ;)

Thanks Jenn- will check those out and try them. Just really tired right now because M decided to be up and upset about it from 1:30-3 last night...

Stacy - am starting to wonder if she has an egg intolerance anyway. She doesn't like them but when she does try a little she gets a little rash by her mouth (which goes away very quickly). And she reacted REALLY badly to the flu shot, which is egg-based I believe. But she seems fine with meatballs and chicken nuggets so I'm not sure (but only a little bit of hidden egg in there really).

Yes, did coffee and about to try to take a nap!

Maybe I'll hold off on egg in direct form for a while but keeping doing nuggets, meatballs etc since that seems OK. Do any other shots have egg that you know of? I didn't get the second half of the flu shot and probably won't get it at all going forward due to bad reaction (104 fever, no eating, etc).

I think I'll try quesadillas for lunch tomorrow. Any thoughts on how to best prepare/what to put in so I have best shot of her eating them?

Not giving her milk first only makes her furious and still not eat - plus we like her having milk first (it's only 4 ounces tops) so we can all eat breakfast together a little while later.

Now she's back on hunger strike after about 1.5-2 weeks of eating well. Seems to happen every time she gets shots - it triggers something and eating dissapears for a while. All she's had the past few days is some baby oatmeal and fruit puree for breakfast, literally no lunch, and 2-3 bites of dinner. She is drinking her milk and some diluted juice at least.
