Finger Foods

Kristie330

Okay, so DD is obsessed with feeding herself.  We have been doing a mix of BLW and homemade purees.  I feel like my choices of foods for her to feed herself are very bored.  Mostly she gets green beans, noodles, chicken, cheerios, or rice checks.  Open to suggestions, as she has recently started crying when I start to try and spoon feed her and when I load her tray up she is happy as a lark!  Also, looking for things that will pack well to send to daycare with her and keep in the fridge.  This way I can prep on the weekend and just keep giving throughout the week.  Keep the suggestions coming.

I found that steamed foods are really good finger foods and easy to pack up. Carrots, apples, pears, sweet potatoes, squash. I also use to cut up avocado pieces and send half a banana for them to cut up.

We do a lot of the foods already mentioned, but also do grapes, yogurt bites, and bananas.

These days I just feed LO whatever we have for dinner cooked specifically for LO (so salt, cut into sticks or big hunks): grilled cheese, fish, steamed veggies
