how old Is your daughter?
I remember when mine was 1.5 she would only eat bologna and cheese and mac & cheese fruit and cereal. does she want to eat what you eat ? ( off your plate) if so let her as long as she is getting something Inside her I wouldn't worrie. to this day the only meat that my daughter will eat is bologna , hot dogs, cheese burgers from macdonalds and daddy's meat balls she won't eat steak or chicken unless It is in the form of chicken parm ( which is frozen :( )as for getting her to try new foods put out something new every day and ask her t try It. just try one bite you never know may she might like something. as for salds my daughter will only eat tomatoes and cucumbers with ranch dressing. as for the one bite thing my daughter thought that she didn't like carrots until one day I asked her to only try one bite and what do you know now every time she has carrots with dinner they are the first thing gone and sometimes she will even have another helping. well I hope this helps you good luck and remember they go through stages where they won't eat that much. oh and too much cheese can be bad it binds up my daughter for weeks If she had to much. than when It comes time to poop It hurts so much cause It's so hard. well good luck.
