2 meals a day
Quick Egg Muffins
Quick eggy muffins perfect for those days you’re running out of the house and need a quick lunch meal or snack or breakfast!
Iron Rich Sauce
This recipe is from our book, Milk to Meals.Not only is this sauce delicious, it’s full of iron, healthy fats and vegetables and is a sauce the whole family with enjoy!
Gut-loving Creamed Corn
One of my favourite recipes from Milk to Meals is this gut-loving creamed corn!Why? Because the whole family can enjoy it! We still have this meal most weeks for breakfast or lunch and pimp it up with some poached eggs!
Immune Cod liver oil Gummies
Cod Liver Oil contains a beautiful dose of vitamin A, D and DHA (omega 3 fatty acid) all of which support the immune system, bone health, eye health, promote brain function and reduce inflammation. The fat soluble vitamins A and D3 utilise minerals from foods and assists with the colonisation of probiotics in the gut. And the gelatin that makes the gummies is also incredible in boosting immunity and repairing the digestive tract!
Green Dinosaur ‘Ice cream’
Spirulina is a great way of increasing the nutrient density of your babies food (and your own) - and a great plant based alternative for iron for vegans/vegetarians.
Fermented Fruit
To make kefir you need to buy some grains (look in your local health food shop for grains) or some culture starters such as from Kultured Wellness then follow the instructions to make kefir.It’s SO easy, and I prefer kefir to kombucha as it’s a quicker turnaround time (about 2 days to have kefir ready!)
Fermented Golden Cashew Cheese
Soaking the cashews makes them very easy to digest, and the fermentation of the nuts improves gut health, matures babies digestive system, fights inflammation, improves good bacteria, helps the body to absorb more nutrients and boosts immunity!
Beetroot and Tahini Dip/Puree
I made this as baby food but it was so yum I kept some for a dip for myself! Full of good fats from the olive oil and tahini - and calcium and iron! And fibre, folate and vitamin c from the beetroot’sIts flavoursome for your babies palate and yours!
Meatballs
This is a simple, tasty and nutritious meal for the whole family. Best thing about this meal is it is JAM PACKED with hidden vegetables!!
