How Much Food?

[Guest guest]

All,

 

I am to be cooking vegetarian for a family...4 kids ages 7,8,14 & 16. Mom

doesn't cook at all & dad is tired of them eating boxed & packaged foods. The 2

youngest don't eat any meat, nor fish. Eggs & cheese are ok. I'm meeting with

them tomorrow to get more info.

 

While I personally am not a vegetarian, I enjoy a wide variety of grains &

veggies and have SO enjoyed this list with all your fantastic recipes. (If it

makes y'all feel better, we usually do at least 1-2 meals/week vegetarian -

thanks to the group!)

 

Anyhow my question for you, is how much food would children of these ages

typically eat? Ounces of grains and veggies? As I mentioned, I will be

chatting with them tomorrow, but not having kids and not being vegetarian, I'm

sort of at a loss here. Thanks for any thoughts.
