Baby Chicken Caesar

Cooking Time: 20 mins

Family Dishes

I love a good chicken salad! But lettuce is a tricky texture for babies and dressings are often way too salty. Here is a baby friendly version. Swap the Greek Yogurt for Dairy Free yogurt if you need to. This recipe serves two adults and two babies or toddlers.

Mushroom and Pork Risotto

Cooking Time: 25 mins

Family Dishes

A perfect recipe for introducing ‘loaded spoons’ to your baby: pre-load their spoon and hand it to them. Otherwise, let them get stuck in with their hands! I must admit I am lazy with the ladling and just add the stock at once, stirring often. This way I can keep...

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!

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

Cooking Time: 25 mins

Family Dishes

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.

Slow Cooked Pulled Pork ‘n’ Beans

Cooking Time: 8 hours

Family Dishes

This dish is slower in sugar than traditional pulled pork recipes and is soft and ‘grab-able’ for babies. I like to serve it with tortilla wraps and guacamole.

Prawn and Courgette Pasta

Cooking Time: 20 mins

Family Dishes

This meal is perfect for when you want to cook something a bit ‘nice’ but also don’t have enough time or free hands! I ‘butterfly’ the prawns so that they are thinner and safer for babies to eat.

Shepherd’s Pie

Cooking Time: 55 mins

Family Dishes

Shepherd’s Pie is a real British Classic, however, my pre-baby recipe depended on a fair bit of salt for flavour. I developed a new recipe that gets its punch from the blend of herbs and vegetables.

Mini Salmon Wellingtons

Treat your favourite person to this very cute (and quick!) dinner. You can make your own pastry, but I just use Ready Roll and just keep an eye on overall salt levels that day. These taste amazing hot or cold!

Tomato, Spinach and Ricotta Spaghetti

Cooking Time: 20 mins

Family Dishes

Spaghetti is a fun choice for Baby Led Weaning. Let your baby get stuck in, or twizzle some around a toddler fork and place it down as you would a loaded spoon. Most babies figure out their own way of eating it though! This recipe takes little more than the...
