Cheese Rice Porridge- Hear Me Out
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…

Cinnamon Orange Rice Porridge
I didn’t have any oats but I had some Cerelac Rice Porridge. I added milk and cinnamon and mixed up the cerelac first heating for 30 seconds in the microwave extra thick.

White Nectarine Porridge
I don’t have a photo. I preferred some Cerelac and added white Nectarine chunks. I added the nectarine in raw but if your child is under 10 months old and not chewing soft solid fruit yet I would recommend puréeing and cooking first for a more gentle breakfast or lunch. Cook it much like you…

Puffed Rice Porridge
