Baby Food Recipes |
As a working mum, I need to have food ready for my baby for dinner times, and during the day for when he's with grandparents, child minder, etc. I started cooking his food at home a while ago, and haven't looked back since. It's cost effective, quick and easy. Here are some recipes that I have come up with or found that my son loves. All are tried and tested. |

Makes approximately 5 portions
Prep time: 10 minutes Cook time: 30 minutes
Ingredients
- 350g potatoes, peeled and cut into small chunks
- 250g carrots, peeled and diced
- 200g green cabbage, core removed
- 30g unsalted butter
Method
- Bring a pan of water to the boil and add the potatoes. Cook for 25 minutes, adding the carrots after 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, finely shred the green cabbage and then cut again in the opposite direction until you have small pieces. Add to the vegetables and cook for the final 5 minutes. Drain well.
- Heat the butter in a frying pan and add the drained vegetables.
- Using a fork, mix together and mash the vegetables over a low heat for 5 minutes, until you achieve the right consistency for your baby.
You can also substitute the carrots or cabbage for your little one’s favourite veg, or of course add more.
