Has anyone ever gone with a vegetarian child? Any advice? My son eats meat/fish occasionally, but it looks like the only vegetarian options at WDW are two of his least favorite things mac n cheese or cheese pizza. He is an adventurous eater and he eats a lot, but is only 2. I hate to order an adult meal at those prices...and if we share he will eat all our food
Hi, we've always gone with our vegetarian children. Buffets are a great option because your son will be able to have a wide array of food (Boma has the largest selection, followed by Tusker House, but most buffets have several veg options, and chefs usually ask my kids if they'd like pasta or even a stir-fry to go with their meals, along with their buffet choices).
Here are just a few kids picks options other than pizza and mac & cheese:
Mama Melrose (DHS TS)-vegetarian minestrone soup
Studio Catering Co (DHS CS)-half grilled veg sandwich or uncrustables pbj
Liberty Inn (Epcot WS CS)-pasta w/ marinara
Be Our Guest (MK CS & TS)-whole grain macaroni w/ marinara
Columbia Harbour House (MK CS)-uncrustables pbj, but if you want to pay oop you can get an inexpensive vegetarian chili for $4 and steamed broccoli for $2
Tony's Town Square (MK TS)-grilled cheese, mickey cheese ravioli, or multi-grain pasta primavera
We aren't doing the DDP this time. It's not expensive to pay OOP for kids to get an adult meal at CS. Several places have veggie burgers, Tortuga Tavern has a bean and rice burrito, and some places have veg sandwiches or veg flatbreads that are mostly in the $7 range. Sunshine Seasons at Epcot has soups, wraps, and a veggie/tofu (I think now Gardein "chik'n") noodle bowl
