ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER MEAL … VEGETABLES AND LENTIL CURRY WITH CHICKEN

DINNER RECIPE

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER MEAL …

VEGETABLES AND LENTIL CURRY WITH CHICKEN I have made up this one, but surprisingly it has turn up to be very tasty😊

Ingredients :

– 1/2 red pepper

– 30g of red lentils

– 50g of peas

– 50g of aubergine

– 1 can of chopped tomatoes

– 1 small chicken breast

– 1 onion

– 1 garlic cove

– 2 tsp of mild curry spices

– 100ml of coconut cream

If your baby started eating more solid foods like Chloe then chop everything in to a very small cubes; If your baby still eats purees then cut everything in to chunks as it will be blended anyway.

Cooking method :

Fry onion and garlic until golden, then add curry spaces and lentils, and a minute later chopped tomatoes. Bring to the boil and simmer for 10 minutes.

In a meanwhile I roast my aubergine and chicken on the frying pan. You don’t have to do it but I find that this is the only way to cut chicken in to small cubes (I can’t do it with a raw one) and that aubergine keeps its consistency better when cut in to small cubes.

Add all of the other ingredients except peas and simmer for another 10 minutes. Add peas 2 minutes before the finish time. Hope that your baby will enjoy it

DESSERT : Yogurt with Blackberries

If your blackberries and sweet you natural yogurt, if the are quite sharp then add your baby’s usual flavoured yogurt.

BATH SEAT – get one !

BABY STUFF - DO WE NEED ALL OF IT ?

It’s challenging and emotions when your baby have outgrown the baby bath and you need to move to this big, scary bath. Once you think that you got a hang of bathing in the big bath, get confident and start thinking that this is easy … Your baby learns how to sit …. And doesn’t want to lay … But can’t sit that well yet or crawl …. This is quite difficult isn’t it ?

That’s when one of my mum friends told me abut bath seat …. What a brilliant invetion ! It’s great we have used it for around 3 months and it made bath time stress free and so much more fun because we could play in the bath instead of me just holding Chloe all the time.

I would definitely recommend getting one!

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER MEAL … PASTA WITH COURGETTES

DINNER RECIPE

ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER MEAL ….

PASTA WITH COURGETTES

Ingredients – 1 courgette

– 50ml of single cream

– 1 small chicken breast (cooked)

– 2 tsp of Parmesan

– 1 tsp of basil (chopped)

– 50g of baby pasta

Cooking method:

Grate you courgette.

Cut you cooked chicken in to a very small cubes (I have just friend the chicken breast in a little bit of olive oil).

Cook your pasta according to cooking instructions.

Fry courgette in a little bit of olive oil for about 5 minutes (until it softens)

add cream and basil and cook for around 3 minutes. If needs add a little bit of water to the sauce. Add pasta then Parmesan and it’s ready to eat !

If your baby is still not eating solids you can blend all of it or blend everything except pasta. Good thing about this recipe is that you can make it in to a grown up version by just adding salt and pepper in to it to season! Hope that you and your baby will enjoy it !

ITS ALREADY BEEN 5 MONTHS 😳😳

MY BABY EXPERIENCE

2 days ago Chloe has turned 5 months old !!!!

She weights now 6,3 kg ( pretty much double her birth weight) and is pretty “tall” as we have to do a wardrobe change to 6-9 months clothes.

She is able now to :

– seat on her own for few seconds

– stand up on her own when I hold her hands.

– she only wants to stands

– she is blowing raspberries all the time

– she stuck her tongue out

– she is eating solids and loves it ! (So far baby porridge and rice but if she likes that she will like everything)

– put her feet in to her mouth (what a milestone 😊)

– she is such a happy and good baby

I can’t believe that it’s been already 5 months! 5 months of so much love and happiness that at times I think that I will burst. 5 month of worrying about the most ridiculous things (happening to Chloe). Can’t wait to see what tomorrow will bring , or shall I say what Chloe will bring 😊
