Welcome to a special Munchkin Meals! Kaitlyn is 10 months outdated and eats breakfast, lunch and dinner frequently. Since we did/do baby-led weaning, Kaitlyn usually eats small bits of our family meal. This works relatively nicely for primarily probably the most half, nonetheless usually I would like reinforcements to help me put collectively a meal when what we’re consuming isn’t relevant or I’ve merely flat run out of meals. For these events, I flip to the freezer to help me out!
Freezer objects are good on account of they’re frozen on the height of freshness, usually don’t embody all the extra sodium and junk canned meals can have, plus they’ll truly stop some bucks over current selections, notably within the occasion you prefer to buy pure.

Frozen fruit! I give these to her nonetheless frozen. I slice the cherries into fourths and the blueberries I usually depart whole (these specific ones are tiny) or scale back them in half. I’ve moreover accomplished pineapple, peaches and mango from the freezer half as successfully. I scale back every bit into relevant sizes and he or she loves them.
Frozen veggies! I protect frozen peas spherical at all times. They’re my go-to to toss on her tray as soon as I’m attempting to keep up her occupied in its place of Puffs. I give the peas to her frozen (Hailey nonetheless prefers them this way too). I moreover love preserving frozen broccoli on account of it’s a freeze to heat shortly. I boil about an inch of water in a small pan and pour a variety of florets in for a minute or two. I moreover like preserving frozen shredded carrots, edamame and frozen peppers.
Meal makers! Frozen fruits and veggies are good, nonetheless usually I would like help with the bulk part of the meal. For that I like these frozen raviolis, which boil in about 8 minutes. I merely slice them up and drizzle them in considerably olive oil and Violadinner!
Totally different consolation meals embrace selfmade pancakes that I freeze then pop throughout the toaster, cans of black olives that are easy to shortly drain for a healthful fat, canned beans in a position to be rinsed and Applegate Farms meat merchandise, like their frozen rooster strips (confirmed beneath with frozen peaches and roasted sweet potatoes)
