Quick lunch and dinner ideas for 1 year old

5 replies

LoveYouForeverMyBaby · 31/10/2012 16:56

Stuck in a food rut for 1 year old. Currently making the following on rotation, but feel like I really need more ideas to mix it up:

Spag Bol
Meatballs in tomato sauce
Homemade burgers
Jamie Oliver fish fingers
Fish pie with leek
Lentil and tofu burgers (doesn't go down well)
Lentil and chicken soup ( with sweet potato and spinach)
Sometimes sweet potato wedges to go with main meal
Cottage pie
Lasagne

I know that seems like a lot but it all feels and tastes pretty samey. Any ideas?

My LOs used to love Gnochi at that age. You can spear them with a fork and they don't fall off even if you wave it around :). Either with cheese sauce or pesto (if you can find low salt).

Oooh Gnochi great idea! Thank you frenchfancy any others?

I'm going to do Gnochi tomorrow now Smile

That sounds like loads! I've a really easy pesto recipe here www.toddler-recipes.co.uk/pinenut-free-pesto.html a friend also successfully used cream cheese instead of parmesan. You can have a look at the rest of the recipes but your meal options are way more varied than mine!
