A week of meals for a kid who only eats scrambled eggs

Here's a sample week for a child whose main safe food is scrambled eggs. Every day has something familiar on the plate, and a few meals follow the scrambled eggs food chain (same crunch, same shape, same dip, one small change at a time) so a new food never feels like a big leap.

How to use this week

Keep a safe food on the plate at every meal, so there's always something they'll eat.
Serve new foods next to familiar ones, never instead of them. A single bite-sized piece is plenty.
Swap meals around freely. Repeating a meal that worked is a win, not a failure.
For kids under 4, cut food into small, soft pieces and halve round foods like blueberries.
