Meal ideas?

Question

Pretty soon here, we’re gonna be increasing my daughter’s meals to 3 times a day. She currently just eats once & it’s not really a meal, it’s usually just one item that I can just grab real quick. She usually eats either a plain waffle, a waffle with peanut butter, cheese, pickles, toast, asparagus, green beans, hummus, or yogurt. We’ve been doing BLW & she has a great pincer grasp now. We can’t just feed her what we eat because I eat lunch during her naps & my fiancée & I eat dinner after she goes to bed. (He usually gets off work at 7) Does anyone have any EASY meal ideas (breakfast, lunch, & dinner)?

Answer

You could feed her what you eat if you make it early or give leftovers, then you’re not always making two different meals.

Answer

I don’t know if you’ve introduced peanut butter yet, but I give my pb&j for lunch with fruit on the side and she loves it!! I also do avocado toast. Those are super quick and easy. We do scrambled eggs for breakfast, also super easy. We usually give her our dinner so I don’t have many recommendations for dinner, but occasionally we give her a meal from happy baby organics, they make little microwave meals, spinach and cheese ravioli is my daughters favorite or those. You just throw them in the microwave for 20 seconds let it cool and good to go.

Answer

We do raspberries, blueberries, scrambled eggs take seriously like 1 minute to make, just a plain piece of good whole wheat bread, Cheerios as a snack, hummus by itself, bananas, shredded cheese, mashed potatoes, when we have tacos we will give her the works one at a time: a dollop of refried beans, then some ground beef, then some cheese. Some brands of tortilla I have found she can eat but others I have found are too hard to chew and don't dissolve well.
I know what you mean about not being able to feed her what you eat because some nights we are the same way. I will usually try to give her what little I can, like if we are having chicken I will give her just a little bit of shredded chicken, like I said earlier if we are having mashed potatoes I will give her some plain, yeah just anything from the meal she can have I give her. If there's nothing from the meal she can have I will give her some hummus which she LOVES or maybe a scrambled egg or if I have some other fruit she can eat, or even an Eggo, something just easy to give. If I think she hasn't had enough of a meal at dinner then I will feed her like 4 ounces after (she is on formula)
