Tofu was a hit ... we think. She shoves piece after piece in her mouth, but seems to forget to chew. I think she likes the flavor but the consistency (and the actual task of having to chew) are throwing her off a bit. Yesterday she had her third day of tofu (which is necessary to test for allergies) and I mixed it into sweet potatoes versus eating it as a finger food. Tonight we start with cauliflower and lentils are on deck!
Wholesomebabyfood.com is a great site for those who are making their own baby food, but also just for information in general. It gives you nutrition information, proper times to introduce items, recipes, etc.
Lentils and other Dried Beans are another great source of protein and are generally low on the list of those foods that prompt allergic reactions. Im sure Brooke will like cauliflower, since she basically likes everything ... so in a few short days we will be entering the world of the lentil :) Seems like lentils mix well with a variety of foods (Apples,Peaches,Green Beans,Sweet Potato and Tofu just as an example) so it will be a great item to add into the mix. We need to add a third meal soon and I'm getting worried about having to plan out all of her meals, I need as many options as possible!
