Notes
Able to be frozen: yes
Age Appropriate: 6 months + if blended. This texture of meal (chunky style puree) can be hard to manoeuvre in the mouth until chewing is well established and can cause excessive gagging, so if not blending, offer once chewing well and pincer grasp established (usually 9 months +).
