I am finding it a lot easier to be able to cook things both baby and we can have for dinner, saves time and money too. He is eating things that are of a mashed texture and has finger foods too, but I try to give him a softer dinner as well as some finger food, otherwise a lot of his food ends up thrown lol so he might have a soft dinner then some pieces of pasta or veges, pieces of fruit etc.
So far I have made sheperds pie, bologneise and chilli con carne (not spicy) and he has enjoyed all of those. Does anyone have dinners they often do for baby/toddler and themselves? I realise I could give him whatever we have but at times we have things I wouldn't want him to eat yet eg spicy or a bit rich etc. He is dairy intolerant but I can leave cheese out/use soy milk Thanks! ------------- Me 28, DH 29 DS born 20 Nov 2010 (4 years old) #2 due October 7 http://lilypie.com" rel="nofollow">

I only make stuff that Alex can handle..
Pumpkin and brown rice flan (both boys love this) Quiche (really good if you have nice chunky bits of vege in there and I make it without cheese) Teriaki stir fry Roast vege cous cous Mac n cheese Pasta bake (spirals are easier for bubbas lacking teeth than penne) Burgers (he rips them apart but attacks the individual things inside it) Pizza and home made chips Fish and home made chips Chickpea casserole Frittatas Toasties (my lazy can't be bothered meal) Breakfast dinner - hash browns, spaghetti, egg, sausages That's some of what we eat.. |

Risotto
Homemade fishcakes Thick veg soups Slow cooked meat casseroles with mash - I either shred the meat for baby or stick the whole lot in the magic bullet ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Yup that's the recipe I base it off. I don't do mushrooms so the eggy/vege part I change everytime depending on what we have in the fridge
