lunch time!

Has baby got any allergies?

Do you have the app Solid Starts? They have so many different recipes and the ages and how you should serve to them

Have you got some recipe books? I like the Ella’s kitchen and what mummy makes - also need help with inspiration so recipes books are my go to!

If they don’t have a dairy allergy I do pinwheels! Just some pastry with cream cheese and ham or cream cheese and broccoli and roll them up! I don’t give them him often as I know pastry isn’t the best but they’re so good for keeping in the freezer. I make them up, cut them and whack them all in the freezer then whenever I’m stuck they take 15 mins in the oven and it’s always a hit! I just serve it with some fruits or salad veggies! You could do what you want as filling but those 2 are his fave.

Our go-to meals for lunch are quesadillas (I usually shred some roast chicken for extra protein), burrito bowls, egg cups, omelets

@Paige no allergies!:)

@Barbara i do! i havent used it yet though. ill go have a look:)

@Naomi i have the moon & rue one! i loved that for beginning of weaning. ill check out the ellas kitchen one! thank you

@Elle ah pin wheels!!! how could i forget. kai loved them when we first started weaning but i dont think ive gave him any in months. thank you!

Definitely take a look at your recipe books, they give great ideas! Pinwheels always go down well for us, or a spinach and chicken puff pastry tart yesterday was lovely!

So my lg goes to a childminder and she has baked potatoes & beans, pasta, tonight we are having burger & broccoli and baby corn. Some of her favs are chicken, spaghetti meatballs, salmon, and she adores broccoli

Today my baby had a deconstructed ham sandwich. Little strips of lunch meat and bread. With a side of his favorite that’s it bar, a “cookie” and some milk. I had a sandwich with him, and a matcha latte. Later he’s getting some salmon and rice with me for dinner. His version I flake the salmon into the rice like fried rice.

@Megan matcha has a lot of caffeine, do you mean you had it or your baby did too?

@Marina well not directly. But I also still breastfeed. If you’d like to know more here’s a great resource since you seem curious. https://llli.org/breastfeeding-info/caffeine/

@Megan I meant if she “had it with you” because I was a bit surprised. While breastfeeding it’s fine.
