Mini Spinach Beef Burgers

August 22, 2010

For those following Baby Led Weaning, deciding how to offer meat to our babies can be a difficult one. I’ve been playing with the idea of ground meat (savoury mince on a preloaded spoon perhaps?), a tender beef stew or a slow cooked leg of lamb. I ended up deciding to use ground beef to [...]

Baby Baked Apples

August 14, 2010

I’m becoming a bit more adventurous in the kitchen now that Teddy is getting a bit older and is becoming even more efficient at finger feeding. He’s been happy to munch on lightly steamed slices of apple for a while now so I thought it might be time to try something different and bake the [...]

Mediterranean Roast Vegetable Pasta (for babies and for grown ups)

August 9, 2010

Teddy eating his fusili pasta Eating this meal has to be, hands down, one of our best moments with Baby Led Weaning thus far.

Sarah’s bolognese sauce

November 23, 2009

In my mad rush to have a freezer full of frozen meals before the birth of my first baby, I started with a bolognese sauce. I figured this sauce could be heated and served with spaghetti, could be turned into lasagne or could even be used to make a shepherd’s pie. A good bolognese sauce recipe is [...]
