What to feed 6 month old in a day?

[lalallola]

Really lacking inspiration and feeling quite overwhelmed by weaning so was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions for breakfast/lunch/dinner/etc?

Weetabix or porridge have always been popular breakfasts for my children. If you don’t want to give what you are having for lunch or dinner, I recommend freezing a small amount of pasta sauce so you can quickly do a meal that way.

Have a look at "What Mummy Makes" on Amazon :)

I’ve weaned both of mine by offering what I was eating, when I was eating, if they were awake. So if I was having some toast for breakfast I’d give them some, might smush on something interesting for them. If we were having stir fry for tea I’d offer that. I just cut stuff up to the right size for their age/development and wanged it on their tray. Oh and I don’t cook with salt anyway by I was mindful of it in sauces.

If you eat a relatively healthy, balanced diet yourself you can just offer them some of what you have. Otherwise good finger foods we found were:

-Porridge slices (basically porridge made up more dry than normal and microwaved until set- there are recipes online)
-Omelette/frittata slices
-Vegetable fritters
-Eggy bread
-Pasta
-Savoury muffins

Served with fruit and veg.

This book is a really good place to start - www.amazon.co.uk/Weaning-What-Feed-When-your/dp/0241352487/ref=asc_df_0241352487/?hvlocphy=1007239&linkCode=df0&hvptwo&psc=1&psc=1&hvnetw=g&hvadid=310882654267&hvpone&hvlocint&th=1&hvpos&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl&ref_=d6k_applink_bb_dls&hvqmt&tag=mumsnetforu03-21&hvtargid=pla-564692133596&hvrand=17807257548992731508
