Liver pate for our iron deficient tired two year old, help!

[Guest guest]

OK guys, I made liver pate for our iron deficient and anemic, celiac

two year old with ASD problems...now how do I get her to eat it?

Any ideas???. Since her set back/regression with rotatvirus, she is

only able to eat intro foods and easy beginner easy to digest foods.

She is very skeptical of new things!

I thought she would love it...well you know how that goes...it

looked different! I should know better than to assume anything

with her. It always messes things up...today she may like it...who

knows with her?? LOL! She is sooo tired...we need to do something.

She is improving greatly, one week out of hospital today. Yet, she

is sleeping 14 + hours in a 24 hour day.

Our pediatrician will not give her B12 shots (which would help with

iron metabolism and absorption.....and could be causing her to be so

tired in the first place)...she says that she is too young! Can't

see the DAN! (who would) for two more weeks....he can't work us in!

Do I dare use the nasal B12 spray that I use?????

Thank you, Antoinette (celiac) mom to Kiki-2 (celiac/autistic) 2/06

Antoinette,

Make a little pancake of a beaten egg and roll it up with the liver

inside, like an egg roll. Cut it in small one inch pieces and see if

she will eat it.Or hide it in a meat loaf or muffin mixture. Adding

softened butter to liver pate makes it milder and very smooth.
