Hayden is REALLY into finger foods these days, so I'm trying to think of more foods that are easy for her to eat but also healthy. So far, she eats steel-cut oats, edamame (cut in half), fruits rolled in crushed oats (easier to pick up), black beans, chicken pieces, yogurt puffs & quinoa. We haven't moved onto cheese yet, but I'm going to introduce it soon. Other ideas?
Re: Healthy Finger Food Ideas
I was wondering the same thing!
We have done the egg- both scrambled & hard-boiled yolk. I forgot about the avocado- we have some in the fridge! I should also steam more veggies (duh!) Thanks for the recs!
K only has two bottom teeth, her top teeth are nubs that I can see whiteness through the gumline but no actual teeth.
I give her mini bagels. She gums them like crazy, I think she likes it for teething. She is down for chewy, gumable things. I smash down the grilled cheese sandwiches while I am cooking them. Everything I give her is ripped or cut into little pieces.
I feel more comfortable giving her breaded stuff, it mostly gums down and dissolves better than the fruits do. But steamed veggies work because they dissolve so easily too. K has eaten waffles and pancakes. She loves them.
After writing this I noticed my child eats ALOT of carbs lol...
