A. A balanced diet plan for a two-year-old Indian child should include a variety of foods to ensure they receive all the necessary nutrients for growth and development. Here's a general outline: **Breakfast:** - Option 1: Idli or dosa with sambar and chutney - Option 2: Paratha with yogurt or paneer - Option 3: Upma or poha with vegetables **Mid-Morning Snack:** - Fruit slices (banana, apple, papaya) or fruit smoothie - Whole grain crackers or biscuits **Lunch:** - Rice or roti with dal (lentils) or paneer curry and mixed vegetable sabzi - A side of yogurt or buttermilk - Include a small portion of salad or cucumber slices **Afternoon Snack:** - Moong dal or chana chaat with chopped vegetables - Vegetable sandwich or cheese cubes with crackers - Homemade fruit popsicle or fruit salad **Dinner:** - Khichdi (rice and lentil porridge) with mixed vegetables - Chapati with spinach dal or chicken curry - Include a small portion of curd or raita **Before Bed:** - Warm milk with a pinch of turmeric or honey (optional) Ensure to include a variety of foods from different food groups such as grains, pulses, dairy, fruits, and vegetables. Offer small, frequent meals and snacks throughout the day and encourage self-feeding whenever possible. Always supervise mealtime and ensure the food is served in an age-appropriate manner to prevent choking hazards. Additionally, consult with a pediatrician or a registered dietitian for personalized dietary recommendations based on your child's specific needs and preferences.
