Another way to serve porridge! These are delicious and perfect spread with fruit compote. They work with breastmilk, oat milk, cows milk, formula… whichever suits you best! You can also add a teaspoon of coconut powder for a tropical twist.

Lime Chicken With Peppers

Cooking Time: 25 mins

Family Dishes

Marinading chicken is a great way to keep it soft and juicy for babies, as it can easily become dry. Serve this simple, zesty dish with avocado and sweet potato or rice and sprinkle some sea salt and chilli flakes on yours!

This is a great recipe for using up the tail end of the Ready Roll that you didn’t need, as well as odds and ends of fruit. Feel free to sub any of the fruit ingredients for whatever works for you.

This dairy free pesto is conveniently lower in salt than normal pesto too, so a good choice for all babies. Stir through pasta or vegetables, add to soups, use as a sauce for white fish and meats…. lots of possibilities!

Cottage Loaf

Cooking Time: 2 hours

Family Dishes

A mash-up of British classic Cottage Pie and American Meatloaf that is perfect for little hands. This recipe makes a large loaf, but it freezes really well if needed. You could do a ‘shepherds’ version by switching to lamb mince and adding mint too.

Mango Cod

White fish is a great choice of protein for toothless babies. Big, juicy cod loin is ideal. Look for where the fish naturally flakes for chunky baby-portions. I like to serve this dish simply with rice and green beans.

Butterbean and Mint Spread

Cooking Time: 5 mins

Dips, Spreads & Sides

A fresh and creamy spread, delicious on bread, toast or rice cakes. This takes minutes to prepare and can easily be made dairy free by using coconut yogurt. Add more yogurt to turn this into a dip.

Best for Baby

I always keep leftover pasta, but don’t always have the time to cook a sauce for it. Rather than serving plain pasta, try blitzing up this fresh medly to stir in.
