3tbsp porridge oats (not the instant sorts)
3tbsp milk
Mix together in a small shallow dish and allow to soak a bit. Flatten top. Put in microwave for 2 minutes. When done, remove and cut into slices while still hot. Allow to cool and feed to baby. You can put dried fruit in it after the initial mix and push them into the mixture before nuking too.
Now- i'm really not that bad in the kitchen, some may say i'm good in the kitchen- but for some reason it took me 4 goes to get this right! I think i used the wrong sized container, then didn;t soak them for long enough... you ladies may be better than me!!
On the meat/finger food bit. I made the other day for hamish some chicken tender schnitzels... in that i got a tenderloin of a chicken breast and the bashed it out into a really thin schnitzel.. crumbed it using some parmesan and then cooked it in the pan with a little oil. It tasted great- BUT hamish was in a bad mood and didn't eat it...

so not a glowing recommendation... BUT i think it was quite soft- especially as i cut it across the grain...
Also i cooked some other chicken tenderloin pieces in the oven in some tinned tomatoes- so essentially poached them. THey were very soft!
I haven't tried it yet as it's more of a winter thing... but meat in the slow cooker should go very soft i'd imagine? If you don't have a slow cooker then done in a casserole...
Also i do chicken thigh fillets off Lemonthyme's website- marinaded in a natural/greek yoghurt and mild curry paste mixture, then baked till cooked and brown. I then cut these into slices for hamish and he usually gets enough of it down. LOVES it in fact!! Eats off all the yoghurt and curry paste at least!
