Can I ask Rosalie is already putting food in her mouth she puts spoons (nothing on it) in on her own....and puts anything I have on my plate in her mouth. My question is as she's so little would you just let her eat as she wants?
Does anyone have any easy meat ideas? I don't get the time to cook proper meals very often so LO has mostly had cheese, peanut butter or houmous for his protein.
Ruby loves meat!
I make a simple chicken curry (onion, chicken, curry paste, tinned toms, any veg and a bit of natural yoghurt) I serve with rice and / or naan bread
Casseroles - take time but not in the prep, just a few minutes chopping then let it simmer until it's cooked
Roast a chicken (again, time in the oven but very little prep) and the leftovers are good for sandwiches, in pasta dishes etc
Meatballs and burgers are very easy and quick to make (and also to make in bulk and freeze)
I've done a few stews that he's tried and I do cook curry, but I'll have to tone down the heat for LO as we like it hot
Would you believe I've never roasted a chicken?? I was vegetarian for a lot of years and I'm still squeamish about meat that's in animal shape!
Meatballs is a good idea and I know OH would love them too, so might give that a try.
Still, it would be great if you could buy cooked meat that wasn't packed with salt and other nasties for those times when I don't have anything made.
You can make up things like meatballs and chicken nuggets yourself in big batches them freeze them in smaller portions for quick meals.
and to be honest if your LO is managing to eat third of a slice of bread then that is more than SOphia has had for dinner tonight!
