Post by: mrsrobbo on March 06, 2006, 15:56:59 pm

I have been giving bradley solids for ages now, he eats everything, not found anything he wont eat, so i am so pleased. I have given him butternut squash, but when i went shopping i came accross spagehetti squash, I bought one, but have no idea what to do with it!!! any suggestions?????

Also can i try him with kiwi? wasnt sure because of the seeds

I would guess that you would do the same thing as with the butternut squash.
Not a lot of help - sorry.

I don't think you can give kiwis - for the same reason as strawberries, I think they are allergens.

Definately hold off on the kiwi, my little neighbour, 11 months old, recently had a tiny bit of kiwi and had an anaphylactic reaction to it.  Luckily we live near the hospital and she is fine now.

Annabel Karmel has a recipe in the 4 - 6month section of one of her books for Kiwi & Banana  ???.  I gave it to DS and he loved it.

Stawberries are in the 6 - 9 month section.

I suppose every book and website gives different timescales  ??? ??? ??? very confusing.

spaghetti squash can be cooked in the oven like normal squash. Just make sure you have lots of water around it so it doesn't dry out. Tastes like regular spaghetti. you scrape the insides out wiht a fork and it looks just like spaghetti! I have it with pasta sauce or cheese sauce or any other type of sauce. My LO isn't quite ready for that just yet but I love it :)

cut the squash in half lengthwise. scop out the seeds and place cut side down in a pan of shallow water. place in oven at 350 degrees for about 1 hr or until a fork slides through the skin easily. remove from oven and cool. scoop out the squash when cool. (IT looks like spaghetti!) I add organic tomato sauce and puree it for my 7 mo old. He loves it! I hope yours does too!
