New Food For Baby


OKay so who else is sick of the same 5 thing they can think up to feed their kid?!! I know I am. Alexarya doesn't seem to care but I think she may need a little more diversity. I guess part of the problem is that I am a simple eater and I don't really care much about variety. (This also makes me a faithful wife...hehehehe) Well, I'm not sure if this simple little recipe is new to anyone but I hadn't thought of it till now cause Alexarya hasn't seemed to like fish. Today I made her some bow tie pasta. I cooled them off and added a can of tuna and some mayo, mixed it up and handed her a small bowl. She loved it! Yumm Yumm. The bow ties are just the right size, the mayo is devilishly slippery and somehow she doesn't seem to realize there is fish in the mix..woo hoo
I recommend giving this dish no more than once a week, if not less because there are high level of mercury in tuna (not enough that one meal matters and the pros out weigh the cons) but don't go over board. The next time I make it I am thinking about chopping up some raisins into tiny little pieces and throwing them in. The are sweet and high in iron. I think they go well with tuna.
Enjoy

  1. Good idea! We tried giving Riley plain tuna fish (with mayo) one night and he kept spitting it out at us. We loves pasta though so this disguise may just work!

    Also, thanks so much for the spinach littles. He had two last night with his dinner and loved them. He loves the potato littles as well in case you haven't tried them.
