Give me inspiration

Thankfully my 8m old DS has taken to solids like a duck to water (awful reflux issues so was dreading adding food into the mix!). I’m quickly running out of meal inspiration for him though 🙈 Hasn’t turned his nose up at anything so far and no known allergies at the moment!

Tell me a typical days meals for your DC - Breakfast, lunch and dinner 😊 bonus points for anything I can add to my freezer stash 👏🏼

For breakfast, my dc started on Ready Brek and once we had finished the box we moved on to Weetabix, sometimes punctuated by the odd day of having toast or omelette.

For lunch, it would be something like:
Cheese flapjacks solidstart.ie/cheesy-carrot-flapjacks/
Egg muffin www.babyledfeeding.com/recipe/baby-led-weaning-egg-muffins/
Boiled egg and soldiers
Sausage rolls www.mummycooks.com/blogs/recipes/homemade-pork-sausage-rolls
Cheese on toast
Tuna pasta salad mummytodex.com/tuna-sweetcorn-pasta-salad-for-babies-toddlers-easy/
Lentil slice www.healthylittlefoodies.com/curried-lentil-bake/

I use Pinterest, loads of good recipes on there!

DD's absolute favourites at that age were blueberry pancakes. Apparently you can freeze them but my lot usually scoff the lot.

Eggy bread with cherry tomatoes for lunch or "bits", basically just bits of what we had in.

Fish pie for tea.

That would have been her ideal day Smile

@Fivemoreminutes1 Thank for the links 😊 I’ll have a look at those!

@spangleswereace I’ve been trawling Pinterest too 😊

@BunnyRuddington I made a big batch of raspberry and blueberry sheet pan pancakes and they go down a treat! Freeze great too 😊 DS loves a picky plate too 👍🏻

I used a book titled "What should I feed my baby?" with all of mine.

I think the author is Suzanna Olivier (sp?) and you can get used copies cheaply on Ebay or Amazon
