Those of you that give black beans

Do you do anything special to them for serving to LO?  Just plain?  Thanks!

Re: Those of you that give black beans

  • I make "refried" beans with canned black beans - add a bit of water, taco seasoning, and smash then lightly (about half the beans smashed, half whole).
    I have served this as a side dish and also smeared in a quesadilla with shredded chicken. My kid loves black beans.

  • E LOVES black beans and pinto beans. Beans and rice seems the way to go for us. I do them whole but so soft they're mushy.

  • I recently made them as @porklump30 said "refried" they were so easy, delicious and she gobbled them up.

  • I was pureeing them but now might start giving them mushy but whole.

  • She will eat them plain, whole or smashed, but she LOVES them smashed with salt, lime, and a teeny bit of jalapeño, hot sauce, or chipotle. Just a little.
  • DH cooks the beans like he does for us and I smash them between my fingers to make them flat for DS.

  • I give them to the boys plain, and they've also had them mixed with cooked green bell peppers. I crack open a can, drain and rinse them in a colander, and put them straight on their trays :) They LOVE them.

  • We just give them to her warmed up.  She LOVES black beans, and could probably eat them every day for every meal if we let her.  It's messy though, so definitely be prepared!

  • Thanks for all the ideas! We are going to try them tonight.  Anyone notice gas issues?  Did you start with a small amount just in case?
