✨baby led weaning 8 months! ✨

My son loves this little lunch, so it’s pretty simple, I used for the patties …

- half pack of ground chicken ( made 6 patties )

- half cup of finely chopped carrots

- a tablespoon of breadcrumbs

- 1 egg

I just got my skillet pretty hot with a little avocado oil, and just started plopping the chicken onto the skillet, I cooked the chick throughly and then that was it perfect little chicken patties, now sometimes I pair this with other stuff like pasta sauce and sometime green sauce, my son loves these!

I also gave him a half of cucumber & his favorite strawberries!

... Read moreBaby led weaning (BLW) is a popular approach that allows infants to explore solid foods at their own pace. At 8 months, babies are often ready to try a variety of textures and flavors, making it an ideal time for introducing delicious foods like these chicken patties. Start by preparing the patties with ground chicken, finely chopped carrots, breadcrumbs, and egg. The process is straightforward, requiring minimal cooking time, which is excellent for busy parents. Sauté the patties until golden brown, ensuring they are cooked thoroughly for safety. Pairing them with soft fruits like strawberries or cucumber not only adds nutrition but also introduces different textures that babies love to explore. It's essential to offer a diverse range of foods, helping your child develop healthy eating habits early on. Incorporating ingredients like finely grated vegetables into patties can boost nutritional content while keeping meals appealing. Moreover, experimenting with different sauces can make mealtime exciting and encourage your baby to try new flavors. Remember, every baby is unique, so it may take time to find what works best for your little one. This delightful chicken patty recipe is a great start to an adventurous food journey!
