The girls started meats almost 2 months ago. I started with the jarred meats but don't want to continue much longer. Eventually, I'd like to completely transition to homemade and natural foods for my children (over jarred and pre-made meals).
My ingredients:
-Natural ground turkey
-Organic spinach
-Onion
According to my online source, the best way to cook meat for babies is to bake it or boil it. Use the juices so you don't loose any of the nutrients!
I probably should have used chunks of turkey but had already purchased the ground. Oh well. The ingredients were boiled on the stove. After cooling a bit I blended them up with all the juices.
It turned out a slightly grainy and the girls made faces at the new food. I ended up feeding it mixed with fruit. That technique seems to work for us. I offer the new "yucky" food. After they refuse a second bite I mix it with something they already love and keep feeding it to them. Eventually, they get used to the new food and can eat it by itself.
