Sandwich for Babies

Seven Simple Sandwich Ideas For Baby


1) Banana – what could be easier? Just lightly mash a ripe banana, spread on bread, squash another slice of bread firmly on top and cut into four. Simple, nutritious and yummy!


2) Egg yolk and avocado – packed with nutrients, this creamy and delicious sandwich filling is ready in seconds. Just mash one cooked egg yolk (warm or cooled) with ripe avocado.


3) Canned fish, avocado and yogurt – this is a big favourite in our house and a great source of calcium and essential fatty acids. Use tuna, salmon or sardines (preferably – in the case of salmon and sardines – WITH their bones and skin) and mash thoroughly with ripe avocado and a little unflavoured, whole milk yogurt (here’s how to make your own).


4) Veggies and cream cheese – simply take one of your portions of pureed vegetables (something like butternut squash or carrot has the ideal texture – thinner purees like zucchini tend to be too watery) and blend with cream cheese. Mmm!


5) Chicken salad – combine cooked, finely chopped chicken with finely chopped melon, then add enough natural yogurt to hold the entire mixture together.


6) Beans – try these easy and delicious recipes for Pureed Beans and Ricotta and Bean Spread… they both make fantastic fillings for sandwiches!
