New Mum’s Food Adventures

Today’s homemade lunch was as you can guess from the title cauliflower and broccoli. After looking into it I put in some reduced fat nuttelex butter. Baby loved it. Nuttelex is a vegan butter and though we are not a vegan family both me and baby’s father have lactose related issues. Butters in particular can make me quite sick.

The mash was well received. He was a little put off by the texture at first but in the end loved it. It smelled good and tasted good. Because it was fairly thick and pasty he filled up quickly and I froze the remaining.

At this stage a lot of the homemade food is a little experimental. But I don’t serve anything without checking if it’s ok for babies based on his age as well as health benefits. Today he needed more exposure to vegetables and new textures. I’ve slowly worked him up to new textures as he seems to be put off by textures more than flavours. Today went well. I will try update this post with a photo later.
