What My LO Ate Yesterday

[scorpioscuba]

Breakfast: Some purees and banana yogurt I made in the hotel room

Lunch: black beans, shredded pork, part of a sandwich bun (all parts of our lunch before we hit the airport)

Snack on the plane: Puffs! This kept her super busy for like 20 minutes

Dinner: BM - we got home late afternoon and she was T I R E D. So bath and nursing it was for an early bedtime. I had to scrounge through the fridge/freezer to make DS a suitable dinner so I'm glad she was happy with her milk

B: Apple pancake, bacon, applesauce
L: pears
D: spaghetti noodles, meatballs, fried eggplant slices

dizzycooks, tell me more about this apple pancake! I have some apple puree/ applesauce stored in the freezer and wondering if that would be a good thing to make with it.

kelltothekell you can totally replace butter/oil with apple sauce. My recipe is buttermilk pancakes from divascancook.com and I add 2tsps cinnamon and one chopped (uncooked) apple.

Yesterday he had scrambled eggs and blueberry pancakes for breakfast, celery sticks for a snack, and for dinner, cucumber slices and Greek yogurt with mashed raspberries (we were running late and I needed something quick).

Today he had leftover blueberry pancakes, celery sticks, and for dinner he'll have steamed broccoli and zucchini, and cucumber sticks, and probably some of the rice/tomato/black bean dish that we're having.

scorpioscuba, does your LO just pick up the black beans? Or do you smash them at all? Sometimes I get nervous my LO will choke on little things, and his pincer grasp isn't all that good yet.

Here is a picture of her eating spaghetti at home. I thought I had more pictures of her eating. She eats pretty much what we eat, I do try to not give her dairy or sweets. She not too fond of her purée pouches but sometimes surprises me and eats an entire one. She's only had pinto beans once, and tonight will be taco soup with pinto and black beans. .

I just put whole beans on her tray. I am pretty sure they are too small to actually choke her. And they are good practice for that pincher grasp.

Today's food -

Lots of breast milk and

B: Toast and half a banana. I cut the toast into crustless pieces about 2x4 inches. Banana is just peeled and cut in half.

L: Mini pasta shells. Apple slices.

D: Dd1 and I had spinach and black bean quesadillas for dinner, so dd2 had a dairy-free, deconstructed version of that. Black beans, sautéed spinach (chopped up for easy shoving into mouth), and strips of flour tortilla. If she could have dairy I would have just cut her some narrow slices of quesadilla.

Today we had scrambled eggs and toast for breakfast, a banana, celery, and cheerios for lunch (as far as I can tell - nanny does lunch), and for dinner he had kimbap for the first time. It was a hit!
