BROCCOLI FOR BABY LED WEANING

Broccoli has always been one of my favourite vegetables. I love eating it raw, dipped in hummus, throwing it in stir fried, baking it in the oven with a little olive oil or boiling it quickly to serve alongside a wholesome Sunday dinner.

Broccoli can also easily be grated and added to muffins, pasta sauces and savoury pancake batter, boosting the nutritional value of your and your baby’s food.

Why choose broccoli for baby led weaning?

• Also contains Vitamins A, B, E and K!
• A fantastic source of iron, something your baby needs to get from food sources after six months+
• Contains calcium – vital for bone and teeth health
