hi,
lo drinks A LOT of water... its pretty hot here and she loves it... she also takes fresh juice for lunch sometimes... but that s about it. what other liquids can I give her?
She s not into plain yogurt, unless it s mixed with pureed fruits or given with lunch meals. thank God she still loves her veggies and non-sugary food!...
Siobhan ... I found one nice recepie that lo loves...
breast chicken cut into thin slices and soaked in plain yogurt over night. the next day, just dip the pieces a bit more until the pcs are covered then coat them with bread crumbs and put them in a greased covered pan in a preheated oven for 15 mins... the chicken comes out extremely tender and yummy
if your lo drinks from a straw, you can make smoothies for her.. fruits with crushed oats and yogurt or even formula... mine isnt yet into straws...
also you can mix milk with eggs (yolk if you dont give the white) and cheese ( and anything else you like, eg mushroom, parsley ets) and make a scrumbled egg.
I gave lo some Halloumi grilled cheese the other day and she loved it!
but it is quite salty...if I soak it in very hot water for an hour I think it will become less salty...
1.5 ounces of cheese is equivalent to 250 mls of milk for a dairy serving.
thank you for this tip Mashi, as for mixing formula with food, I do that with breakfast adding it to cereal or weetabix...
thank you all
big hugs
