Dairy free toast topper ideas.

[seabuckthorn]

Have a dairy free 1 year old. He quite likes crackers and cracker bread but I don't know what to put on them!
He likes nut butters, hummus and a bit of jam occasionally.
I was thinking of whizzing up some salmon mixing it with some dairy free mayo and chives or something into a pate type thing?
Could work in a jacket too?
Any ideas welcome.

Avocado
Vegemite
French toast

Pâté
Beans

I don't know if these things contain traces of dairy, but ones that spring to mind: baked beans
marmite (for when he's older, I guess the salt content is a bit high for him atm?)
sliced banana
shredded ham (jacket potatoes)
mashed avocado (maybe add chopped tomatoes with a tiny bit of lime juice?)
warmed chopped tomatoes (out of a tin - surprisingly tasty, was a cheap meal by DM used to do)

Salsa, taramasalata.

Any cooked beans or lentils can be whizzed up in a food processor with a little oil or other ingredients to make a hummus-style vegetarian pate. I most often do red lentils (cooked in a little veg stock) blended with a few sun-dried tomatoes in oil. The DCs have had that as a sandwich filling since they were little, and I really like it on oatcakes.

Definitely try avocado!
My dc do normally have pâté I should get some.
exexpat I love the sound of that lentil salmon mix.

Thanks everyone.

Beans are one of his favourites!

Mayonnaise
Honey (for over 1yo)
Tomato purée
Apple sauce
Roasted peppers
Sardines
Pea puree

sardines / tinned pilchards.
pate.
honey / golden syrop (maybe not too often for that)
Bovril.
Eggs - boiled, poached or fried
egg mayonaise

tomatoes, mushrooms, banana, tuna?

My DC love broad beans and we often have a glut of them to use up so I make a broad bean paste which is really nice on crostini or oatcakes

Cook the broad beans, peel away the grey outer skin and mash them using a potato masher. Add a bit of garlic, olive oil and lemon (and for adults salt and black pepper) and then spread on toast etc.

Keeps really well in the fridge in a jar as well.

Mashed banana. It's my Dairy free DS3's favourite. (He's 18mo).

For lunchtime sandwiches, his favourite is mashed avocado, a few prawns and seafood sauce, all mixed together. Coleman's seafood sauce is dairy & soy free (DS3 also allergic to soy and nuts).

Thanks for that broad bean recipe sounds really good, I'll be trying that one for us as well as DS2!
I will try mashed banana too.
Haven't tried prawns, though I think he would like them. We need to be braver with trying new foods I think.

couthymow we are soya free too. Do you mind me asking what bread you use? DS2 has had trouble with the dryness and crispness of some of the breads.
