A picky 5 year old?: That can be frustrating! first, let me ask if she is urinating more than usual, seems unusually hungry or thirsty. These can be warnings for diabetes. Assuming these aren't the case, try offering dips for her fruit or vegetables (yogurt or hummus?). A red sauce can hide any vegetable! remember that kids who "cook" will tend to try their own creations. Good luck. This will pass.
