Plum Tots- Fruit and Grain mish mash - apple cinnamon oats and quinoa

To be honest- mommy is not sure that I like cinnamon.  I've had it a few times with less than stellar results.  Ehh- it was pretty good I guess. I ate it.  Then I ate my goldfish crackers. Now people, those are GOOD!

Beech Nut Fruities- Apple, mango and carrot puree

So I was playing while mommy mixed this up- sometimes the woman is slow, I gotta say it.  She was messing around and putting oatmeal into my food so I was playing with my new hat.  I like this thing.

The food was super good too! And it was so PRETTY smeared all over my tray. Mommy should really get a picture of that for you.  I make a big mess, and have even learned to drop some over onto the floor and lean over to look at it alot.  I make sure she has to WORK to get me to eat. But this stuff was yummy and I ate it!

Ella's Kitchen- very, very tasty Vegetable Bake with lentils!

MMM!! This tasted as good as it smelled!!! I loved every last bite of it!  I did take a little time to smear some of it around, but that's what happens now that I am eating here 3 times a day!  Ella's is all organic, and has lots of good ingredients in it like- tomatoes, carrots, parsnips, rutabagas, onions, leeks, peppercorns,sweet potatoes, red lentils, red peppers, oregano, cumin and olive oil! This is more like what the big people eat!!

I need a vote people! Help me eat cake!

Daddy's birthday is really soon. Mommy is trying to decide if she will let me have some cake with daddy, or if I should wait until it's MY birthday.  I want to say that I don't think it's fair if EVERYONE else gets cake and I have to wait? Whose with me???? Give the baby some CAKE!

Plum Organics - Apple, raisin and quinoa

I was sad when this was all gone.  I really liked it a lot!  I didn't even stop to play my games, I just ate really fast. Daddy was even in the kitchen watching me!!! It was sweet, and mommy put some extra rice in it to make it the way I like it.  The ingredients were just like the name- except a little lemon juice! mmmm... good!

Pastini in Chicken Broth- with Nurturme scrumptious squash

My friend Abby's Mommy told mine about this pastini stuff, basically little bitty tiny pasta shaped like stars.  So my mommy got some and made them for me. She cooked them in chicken broth, added pureed chicken that she made for me too. She also added some Nurturme scrumptious squash. That stuff was delicious!!!!!  My friend Sonja was here to baby sit me so she was lucky and got to watch me eat, I know that was fun for her.


**Mommy says** Nurturme is a brand that makes dehydrated baby food, so basically I added powdered squash to the mixture.  It isorganic and BPA free.  Also- I have heard that people add this to baby food as a thickener instead of a grain, but from my research it is actually higher in calories and carbs, and not as nutritious as adding the grain- since most of the grains are nutritionally enhanced.

Recipe- feel free to tweak for your babies tastes! Keigan likes foods thicker, and this made two servings. 

1 1/2 cups organic chicken broth.  ( I used a carton, BPA free)
1/4 cup pureed organic free range chicken (I pureed the chicken and froze it into individual portions) 
1/4 cup pastini 
1 pack nuturme baby food- scrumptious squash.  

Super easy- boil the pasta in the broth until cooked. Mix in the powdered baby food until not lumpy- then pop in the cube of frozen chicken.  The frozen precooked chicken will help cool the dish down a bit. I served him half, and put the rest into a large size baby food jar for his lunch tomorrow.  I've also done this with the Nurturme crunchy carrots, but it didn't taste as good.  If it is thicker than your baby likes, just add more broth! 
 

Sprout- Vegetable Lasagne with Meat

mmmmm..... Where has this stuff been???????   Mommy gave me this for dinner, and I LOVED IT!  I still have my cold, but I didn't care. I wanted MORE.  It was nice and chunky, with little pieces of meat and pasta in a tomato sauce.  I ate it all gone and was so happy.   Mommy said she may get me this more often, because I can have it when everyone else gets spaghetti. (we'll just see about that!)
