idea for noodles

in Babies: 9 - 12 Months

some of you may already do this but i started doing it tonight with DD's dinner (she's 9 months)

I always want to make her whole grain noodles but i hate putting store bought marinara or tomato sauce on them because i think they probably have a lot of salt. Tonight i defrosted some of her homemade purees and used them as sauce. She had chopped up whole grain linguini with squash puree sauce. She loved it! I have a hard time getting her to eat her purees sometimes and now i have a new method to try to get her to eat them : )

    You can also use couscous. It cooks really fast and is an easy size and texture for them to swallow. It mixes easily with purees.

    my DD also doesnt have any teeth yet but she does fine with pasta, i just cut it up into bite size pieces. she likes rotini. i've given her spaghetti, penne, and linguini and had no problems.

    What a great idea! I have been wondering what to do with my purees that LO doesn't love so much anymore (wants texture). She loves the taste, but wants to feed herself. Thanks.

    i started with pastina (smallest noodle, not sure if it comes in wholegrain ) then this week used barley.
