Gradually reduce the frequency of junk food and replace it with homemade snacks and salads.
The brain grows the most during the first two years of life, so it's best to provide as much nutritious food as possible during this period.

Hi
Any processed food is large quantities is not advisable. Though you are not giving in large quantities, she is getting habituated as she knows she will get it daily. Instead change the frequency of junk food- as in only on weekends or once in 2-3 days initially to only weekends. Make sure to provide healthy snack alternatives to allow her to enjoy multiple tastes in healthy foods and to decrease the need to have processed foods daily.
