Hi Vanessa! Good to hear from you.
Cheese, cheese, cheese. My boys eat tonnes of the stuff. Cheese spread was a staple to begin with - on toast, on oat cakes, on apple pieces - they love it. I now bake cheese straws and put cheese in risotto. They have had absolutely no problem with it at all. It's good protein and good calories. I do worry a bit about the salt content in cheese though but even salt I have read various things about and have come to the conclusion that as long as one is aware of it and doesn't add salt, then it's probably ok! I'm sooo much more relaxed about things like that than I was with my first babe!!
As for cereal... my boys let me spoon feed them baby cereal mixed with fruit puree up until about 10 days ago when they started refusing even that off a spoon. I found some Cow & Gate toddler cereal, which I soak in milk for a minute, drain and then put on their tray. They absolutely love it. It's a four grain one - corn, rice, wheat and oats, I think, so it's quite a good one. And no salt or sugar added like with 'adult' cereals. (I admit though that I've often added a couple of shreddies and some cheerios too by the end of breakfast!)
Right. I'm off to find that sausage recipe...
'Speak' to you soon!!
