Since I’m not the only one who eats in my house, I thought I’d start a new series, titled Munchkin Meals. I got this idea from another of my favorite blogs, A Health Slice of Life, she blogs about all the different Munchkin Meals she serves her daughter, check it out.
Emmett loves eating and on most days will eat anything we give him, it might take him awhile to get to everything, but he’ll try it at least once. I truly believe that we did so much good by having him follow the Baby Led Weaning approach.
For breakfast, Emmett had some toast with sunflower, blueberries and half of a banana.
He has had a banana for almost every breakfast since he’s started eating solid food and he just doesn’t get sick of it. He takes after me, I love, bananas and eat one almost every morning too.
Lunch consisted of, a sunflower butter and jelly sandwich, plums, blueberries and yogurt. I kind of overdid it with this Munchkin Meal, I made way too much. Sometimes I get carried away, trying to be creative and including every possible healthy food item, that I make too much. The beauty is that Emmett just stops eating when he’s full, so even if I make too much he never stuffs himself. I love this since it’s something I struggle with often.
And I have to rave about the jelly on the sandwich, my mother-in-law makes it by hand and it is just so so delicious! This particular one is Strawberry, but we’ve had mixed berry and apricot too and all were equally yummy, plus Emmett loves it.
It looks like someone really enjoyed his lunch, huh?!
For dinner my little munchkin had, salmon, Israeli couscous, blueberries and some garlic naan.
He loved it all! I’m telling you he’s a really fantastic eater.
Now your turn…
What fun meals have you been feeding your Munchkin?
Adorable! He has so many teeth. Our Lil man still has NONE and it makes it hard to get creative with meals. 🙁 Glad to see that Emmett is such a good eater.
You should try giving him some roasted or steamed broccoli. Emmett was eating that before he had teeth because it was soft enough for him to grind with his gums and for him not to choke.
