If you’re a picky eater, there’s a pretty good chance you really don’t try a lot of new foods. Because of that, you most likely survive on the same foods and eat them time and time again. Some may think that’s boring, but they just don’t understand the life of a picky eater. As a picky eater, I repeatedly eat the same foods, rarely trying anything new, and I’m perfectly content. Seriously, everyone — you get used to it, and it really doesn’t bother you as much.

My absolute favorite meal is goulash.

Some may not like this because of the texture of hamburger, noodles and sauce all mixed together, but if you can get past that, it’s a really filling and yummy meal.

One thing I’ll always eat is chicken.

It's great because you can eat it on its own or pair it with other things you like. Expert tip: if you like chicken, try mixing it with rice and corn. You can thank me later.

A basic thing, like toast, is pretty much a staple piece for a picky eater.

You can’t go wrong there.

Mashed potatoes are a hit with many picky eaters.

It’s very basic, there is only one texture throughout the dish, and the dish is very bland. I think we can all agree that mixing too many flavors can be a huge fail while serving picky eaters.

A basic soup, like tomato, will usually be a hit because of its smooth texture and basic taste.

Maybe add some grilled cheese in there as well? If your picky eater is feeling a little daring they might like chicken noodle — but don’t push it.

Rice is another one like potatoes.

It's very bland and can be eaten alone or with other things for a full and filling meal

On a healthier note, an apple can be another good choice for a picky eater, even though that couldn't be your full meal.

It can be sweet, or a little sour, depending on the type you get, so your picky eater can get whichever they like most. Total score!

Not a meal on its own, but peanut butter is another thing that’s pretty good for the picky eater.

You can pick whether you want it creamy or chunky, and it goes with a lot of other things common for picky eaters to have. Peanut butter toast or apples with peanut butter, anyone?!

From one picky eater to another, trust me, I understand the struggle of finding foods you like. Hopefully, you got a couple of ideas from this list and your mealtimes will go a little easier. Best of luck with your future meals.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
