Pesto - for a 10 month old

[OurHamsterisevil]

Is pesto okay for a 10 month old baby. Its a favourite of DS1, so would be a handy thing for DC's to have together

it has certainly been a favourite of dd's since she was 6 mos.

mine certainly had it at that age

couldn't have survived weaning without it

Thanks for the quick replies, I was worried about the nuts in it

My 10 month old has been inhaling penne with pesto for a few months now so another YES

i might be talking completely out of my rear end, but I don't think pine nuts are nuts, they are seeds...

aha, but a lot of times they're actually cashews. not peanuts though, so the gist is the same.

Well that settles it, pasta and pesto for dinner tomorrow night

Is the salt content in the ready made stuff ok though? Or do all you domestic goddesses make your own!

i just always figured that the actual amount of salt wasn't very much, given that you were only adding a teaspoon if that. plus i used to cut it with a bit more oil, as i recall.

What brand does everyone buy thats ok for babies?
I would like to give my 8 month pesto

Sacla normally, or aldi's own the other day !
