2-year-old child menus?

A balanced menu for 2-year-olds should include four essential groups at each meal: protein (meat, chicken, egg, legumes), carbohydrates (whole grain bread, pasta, bulgur, rice), vegetables/fruit, and dairy (yogurt, cheese, milk). Portions are small — about a child's fist. A sample day might look like this:
Breakfast: 1 egg (omelet or boiled), 1 thin slice whole wheat bread, 2-3 tablespoons homemade yogurt, served with half a banana or a few strawberries.
Snack: 1 small apple (grated or sliced) or 1 small pear.
Lunch: 2-3 tablespoons meat/vegetable bulgur pilaf (with zucchini, carrot, potato) and 1 bowl of soup (lentil or wheat).
Snack: 1 small cup (200 ml) whole milk or 1 slice of cheese + a few whole grain crackers.
Dinner: 1 small steamed chicken meatball or vegetable-meat dish, served with 2-3 tablespoons yogurt, 1 slice of bread.
Before bed (if desired): 1 small cup of milk or 1 bowl of yogurt.
Keep added salt and sugar to a minimum; use seasonings (black pepper, mint, thyme). Water throughout the day (approximately 500-750 ml daily) and with snacks, not with meals.
