Now that I’m back in work, it is so important to me that I make healthy and yummy dinners that are quick and simple to make. I have a long commute home and need something quick and easy which doesn’t compromise on health. That’s where this baby led weaning stir fry comes in. I use pre packaged frozen ginger and garlic and packaged stir fry veg to make it even quicker. What’s more, it’s perfect for baby-led weaning and Dexter loves it! Read on for the recipe for this stir fry for babies.
Why offer stir fry to your baby?
I love offering tons of different types of food to my babies and am a big believer in getting them to taste as many different flavours and textures as possible – especially in their first year of weaning.
Stir fry incorporates lots of different food groups and can be made super healthy with the addition of lots of veggies.
Even better – stir fries are SO quick to prepare. This recipe will take you around 15 minutes from start to finish which makes it the perfect homemade meal when you can’t really be bothered to cook from scratch!
How many people does this stir fry recipe serve?
This recipe is perfect for two adults and a baby. Of course, if it’s just you and baby, you can tupperware the other half of the meal and take it to work for lunch the next day!
What veggies can you use in a baby led weaning stir fry?
I like any soft finger sized veggies such as:
- Baby corn
- Green beans
- Carrots
- Peppers
For this recipe we used a pre-packaged veggie box from the supermarket and just made sure everything was cut appropriately for baby.
