✨𝑺𝑨𝑽𝑬 𝑻𝑯𝑰𝑺 𝑰𝑵𝑺𝑷𝑶 𝑭𝑶𝑹 𝑳𝑨𝑻𝑬𝑹✨ 𝗘𝗔𝗦𝗬 𝗠𝗘𝗔𝗟 𝗜𝗗𝗘𝗔! Details below 👇🏽 -𝗧𝗢𝗙𝗨- I cook tofu in large batches to last a few days. This time was 4 packs of extra firm tofu. To a large baking dish, I added the tofu (cut into large rectangles so that I could then slice a few up thinner as shown), sesame seed oil, and turmeric. ✔️ The spice I used is called "Caribbean spice & Roasted Garlic" (by Cool Runnings), but "all-spice" works just as fine. I baked it at 350 until cooked to my liking. Some people like it firm, but for little ones you should definitely keep it nice and tender. -𝗦𝗧𝗥𝗔𝗪𝗕𝗘𝗥𝗥𝗬- As mentioned in the graphic, you have many ways to cut up strawberries to avoid choking hazard. 🍓 Large circles are an option, tiny chunks, long strips are options as well. Children don't require teeth to have #strawberries, but need to be at the developmental stage where they chew the food. -𝗖𝗔𝗨𝗟𝗜𝗙𝗟𝗢𝗪𝗘𝗥- Steam or boil until tender enough to chew with gums. If you boil it, I suggest saving the water for another dish. I freeze mine in my @KiddoFeedo freezer trays for up to a month to add to soups. -𝗤𝗨𝗜𝗡𝗢𝗔- Quinoa is great for those who are #glutenfree as well as a great source of fibre 🙌🏼. Follow cooking directions on the box. 🙂 🥰➡️Quick note that portions vary for little ones. Don't be bothered if yours eats more or less than shown. 🤗 Before their first year, human milk or formula would still be their main source for nutrition, and all children are different in terms of servings. ✨❤️

💚EASY GREEN SMOOTHIE💚 Bottoms up! It's time for a tasty green smoothie/puree that is suitable for the whole family! It's quick and easy to make, and as parents, that's all we can ask for. 🥰 See below for this quick recipe. -INGREDIENTS- 2 bananas Handful of spinach 1 tbs wheat grass powder (ages 2+) 1 1/2 cups from frozen mango chunks Water for desired consistency -INSTRUCTIONS- Blend until smooth -HOW TO SERVE- With smoothies, there are numerous ways to serve them, including reusable pouches, bowls, as popsicles, or in a cup. 𝙒𝙝𝙞𝙘𝙝 𝙢𝙚𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙙 𝙙𝙤𝙚𝙨 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙩𝙡𝙚 𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙛𝙚𝙧? -ABOUT WHEAT GRASS- Wheatgrass contains iron, calcium, vitamins K, E, C and B, and lots more! It's also sodium, #cholesterolfree and #fatfree. Wheat grass is one of the richest edible sources of chlorophyll, which helps with brain and body function 🧠👌🏽. Please note that powder form is not as potent as having it fresh. -AGE 2+ FOR THE POWDER- The reason I put 2years+ for the powder is because of potential allergies.

QUICK AND EASY! Hand mashed purple potato, hand mashed green peas, and a grape in the fresh food feeder 🍇. The broccoli is cooked from frozen🥦🥦. Gotta love those quick and easy meals we sometimes put together. As parents we have a lot on our plates...regardless of our children's ages or how many we have. We've all got our hands full 😩! So it's always nice to see what we have in the fridge or cupboards to quickly put something together. #babyfoodideas

🍓🍌 MASHED STRAWBERRY + BANANA -INGREDIENTS- Half of a banana and 1 large strawberry, as it's good enough for a large serving.

Before 12 months, Mommy's milk or formula will be their main source of nutrition 🤱🏼🍼. -DIRECTIONS- Remove stem from strawberry and chop finely 🍓. Hand mash banana with a fork for desired consistency 🍌. Mix together with a spoon and serve. -MORE DETAILS- I sprinkled some hemp hearts on mine.

💛LASAGNA💛 -DETAILS- Recipe for this one isn't available because I made it up as I went along with leftover pasta sauce, but here's what I did: I blended firm (not extra firm) tofu into the sauce with tomato sauce 🍅, spices, and homemade carrot puree 🥕. The lasagna also served as meal prep for us adults. SWIPE LEFT to see how they turned out 🥳🤤 -LASANGA LAYERS- I started with a little sauce. On top is the pasta, baby spinach, dairy free shredded cheese 🧀, more sauce, and so on. I end up using 9 strips of lasagna in total, but I always boil 11 of them just in case. I bake it at 350° until lasagna is a bit brown at the edges. -VEGGIES- Great Value brand Thai Veggie Mix (Canada) 🥕🥦. Cooked on stove in water with all spice, a little Teriyaki VH sauce for extra flavour. -FRUIT- Blood oranges, and the last surviving strawberry in the house 🍓🍓. ✨SAVE THIS POST FOR LATER✨ ⬅️Swipe left to see Mommy's meal prep version 💗. 💌I am back to checking messages!
