All of these recipes look so delicious- can’t wait to try them with my own kiddos.
I do like these ideas. I usually cooked my son the same dinner as the rest of us, but lunch tended to be a bit of a struggle for inspiration.
Fab ideas! I really enjoy putting together different meals for my baby. I try and introduce a new food to his plate as often as I can, even if he just play with it the first three or four times, he will eventually decide for himself if he likes the food or not.
