GREEN PASTA

DINNER RECIPE

Quick and easy but so healthy dinner!


Steamed broccoli and peas with spinach and pasta.

Blend broccoli and add milk to make the right consistence. Pour boiling water over spinach and blend it with broccoli. Add peas and pasta to the mixture so you get nice texture for you baby to explore (my baby is 8months old and doesn’t like everything to be mashup) . You can add as much of each veg as you want.
