New Mum’s Food Adventures

I have no photo. It was just a fairly white rice porridge. I added cheese to baby’s rice porridge this morning. As he is gluten free and teething he has been extra fussy and I thought why not add cheese today?

The results were very pleasant. Smooth and creamy with a nice cheesy flavour. I used extra tasty cheese. It’s Tasty Cheese with a stronger flavour. I don’t know if other countries have another name for it. I usually add a bit of veg with it like shredded carrots and broccoli but not today. I wanted to see how the cheese did solo and if it was a welcome ingredient. He ate a good amount. I did not expect him to like it but now he has tasted it he is more likely to try it again or the slices.

With his teething he has been popping three at once. There’s been a bit of bleeding but because some foods hurt him he has some food aversions. As he is now approaching his full set of teeth, what he used to love to eat and suddenly hated he is enjoying again.

If your baby loves cheese this is worth trying. Just be wary of constipation from cheese when offering cheese in meals for babies and toddlers.
