Confession

You ready for this?

 OK...here it goes...my child eats like absolute crap!

 I feel so terrible about it.  I mean, my primary responsibility right now is to raise this child to the best of my ability: smart, fulfilled, healthy, etc.  Before Colton had even entered the world, I had grand ambitions of how I was going to use fresh fruits and vegetables to enhance his diet and create his own well-balanced, nutritious, delicious meals.
But somewhere between ambition and reality, I have totally fallen off the wagon.  I feel like the problem has a few roots.  For one, Josh and I are not the best eaters ourselves.  We eat out frequently.  When that happens, Colton's choices are pretty much limited to chicken fingers, grilled cheese, and maybe the occasional hot dog...all served with french fries of course.
On the nights that we do eat at home, I try to prepare meals that are healthy, but rarely do vegetables (or fruits) take the starring role.  On a good night, Colton usually eats about 10 bites of a given meal, and somehow manages to avoid any and all vegetables/fruits if they are present.  At least Chipper is eating well-rounded meals, huh?

this picture is old, but this is pretty much what goes on at our house nightly

                               
I don't think he dislikes what we are serving, per se.  I just think he views meal time as a game.  I am ok with the fact that he may not ever be the biggest/best eater, but I do want to attempt to make the most of what he is eating!
So, this is where I need your help.  How do you fellow moms manage to get fruits and vegetables into your child's diets?  Are there some quick and easy recipes you have that maybe we could use for Colton's breakfasts, lunches, or dinners?  I am not opposed to cooking him a separate meal as long as it is relatively easy/quick.  I appreciate any help you could get.
