Kids are the pickiest eaters. They couldn’t care less if you are the best chef in the world. If the food doesn’t look interesting to them, they simply will not eat it. I’ve been cooking all my life and I can affirm that kids are the hardest palates to please.
If you thought your morning pancakes with perfectly arranged fruit selection are the state of art insta-worthy material, get ready for a bit of a shock.
This mom takes food art to a new level.
Meet Laleh Momedi, mom of Jacob who documents her cullinary ventures with stunning instagram snaps. Too pretty to eat? We couldn’t agree more!
1Trolls Food Art
Donut, watermelon, cucumber, apricots and tortilla wraps – a combination no kid would want to eat separately. Put them together in an impressive food art and it will surely be a child-approved dish!
2Guy Diamond
What a sumptuous looking meal even for an adult! The combination of protein and carbohydrates makes up a perfectly balanced dinner for kids and adults. Turn it into an appetizing food art and your kids will love every bite of it!
3Moana’s Piggy
Most kids will not even dare try quinoa. It’s too healthy for their liking. Add a Pua made from fresh salmon and you might be surprised by how much they’re looking forward to trying it!

Fozzie from the Muppets for breakfast is exactly what would interest a picky eater first thing in the morning. Peanut butter and toast is a classic combination any kid will love!
5Mr. Fredrikson
Christmas leftovers turned into food art? Christmas ham, turkey, potato salad and a bunch of other holiday staple foods with a hint of creative juices and you have yourself a Disney Pixar classic!
6Peppa Pig Smoothie
Those smoothie toppings would surely go before the smoothie does. But, if the smoothie is as good as it looks, there would not be any problem getting it finished off, too.
7Rudolph the Pink Piglet
Food art can be healthy, too, especially if you use organic ingredients. Free range chicken tastes even better than regular chicken if you ask me. I especially love the beetroot-dyed mashed potatoes!
8Mike Wazowski
A breakfast perfect for training athletes if you ask me. Then again, we want our kids to start healthy eating at an early age. So, the hard boiled egg, toast and avocado slices that look like Monsters Inc. superstar is only fitting for the pickiest of eaters!
9Minions and Berries
Need a balanced snack for your little picker? Minions sandwiches would be one of your kid’s favorites! The berries and dates make the entire look legit!
10Paw-tastic Brekky
Never have a dull breakfast ever again! I love chocolate pancakes and so do kids! You can’t go wrong with a pancakes and fruits combo for breakfast. Try your best to turn it into food art to make them love it even more!
11Secret Life of Pets
I loved the Secret Life of Pets movie. In fact, I re-watched it several times because I imagined that’s what my dog did every time I leave the house. Childish, I know. But, there’s nothing childish about this child-friendly chicken and mashed potato food art! I’d love to have a bite of this, too!
12Halloween Plate
Spaghetti in a cauldron is so eye-catching! Just imagine the reaction you’re going to get from your picky eater the moment he walks in the dining room and sees this plate waiting for him on his spot.
13Panda-licious
Have you ever had an onigiri? It’s one of my most favorite things to eat. The contrast between the sweet sticky rice and the crunchy salty seaweed is to die for. Most kids don’t like the seaweeds but turn into a Po food art and they won’t be able to resist it!
14Shrek
Shrek is a gross creature as described in the movie. But, this Shrek on the plate looks so good even the pickiest eater won’t be able to resist wanting to sink their teeth into it!
15Chicken Little
Laleh Mohmedi’s food art is truly remarkable.
They look doable and super mouth-watering. I know it might seem a bit too difficult but it’s all about finding an alternative. Food art for kids is still art. No matter how rustic and childish it looks, it would catch their attention.
Here is the master herself in action, creating another instagram hit!
Recently she also shared a snap of her home studio with the picky eater himself!
