The National Childbirth Trust "First foods and weaning" book gives a reciepe for Spinach puree with nutmeg. It reccomends it as a second stage food, from about 6 1/2 months. The receipe is 100g of young spinach leaves,( stalks removed), 1 tsp margarine or butter, pinch of grated nutmeg, milk as needed. Steam, microwave or boil the spinach until tender. Drain careflluy and squeeze out any excess moisture. Add the marg or butter and the nutmeg and puree, adding a little of your baby's usual milk to obtain the required consistency. I've made this for my baby who is now 7 months and she's enjoyed it. It can be frozen and used when needed. I've also then mixed it with other veggies e.g carrot, sweet potato when i've defrosted it.
