BLW yogurt sauce

Yogurt sauce at 13 months

I haven’t posted in awhile because I feel like, at least for my experienced eater, BLW has turned into just plain eating at this point. Sebastian eats like a toddler, usually a major grazer, which is perfectly fine. It is totally normal for babies to eat less as their rate of growth slows down. Sebastian…

Ham and Cheddar Cheese Roll-Ups

IMG_3134.jpg

Deli meat is easy. But for a baby who doesn’t necessarily do well with a big floppy piece of meat, it is sometimes a bit of a puzzle. Like trying to eat a blanket. Not the simplest lunch idea out there. But warming up some deli meat with a bit of cheese on it, and…

More Stir Fry for Baby

IMG_2069.jpg

Stir fry is so good for baby led weaning. It gives a variety of options for the baby to try, it’s quick to cook, and the whole family will enjoy it. Don’t be tempted to make “healthy stir fry” by just steaming everything or using a tiny bit of spritzed oil (basically trying to eliminate…

Q: Can You Feed a Baby Steak? (A: Why Not?)

IMG_4569.jpg

I made this awesomely delicious stir fry one night. It’s some thinly cut steak, onions, snow peas, and mushrooms. Everything was cooked in coconut oil and butter (onions longest, then the mushrooms, then snow peas, then the steak) and tossed with soy sauce and lemon juice. Simple but awesome. I gave some of everything to…

Steak & Corn-on-the-Cob

Steak & Corn on the Cob

  Last week Kynlee ate steak & corn-on-the-cob. It was her first time trying either of these and I really enjoyed watching her enjoy them both!   Kynlee started with the corn and she was sucking it clean!     We were eating at my parents’ house that night and dad had grilled steaks. I…

Homemade Pork Breakfast Sausage

IMG_9619.jpg

I’ve been making the best pork breakfast sausage recipe for well over a year and it’s wonderful. I also have this spicy breakfast sausage recipe which has a little bit of a different flavor than my original maple one. Since Anneliese loved my spicy pot roast, I decided to make her the spicy version. The…

Spicy!

So tonight I made lasagna! (It was SUPER delicious by the way!) And in my husbands family if you have lasagna you also have Italian sausage. So tonight we did just that.  But here’s the thing. It.Was.Spicy. Ok not THAT spicy, but it had a little kick to it. For me it was just right….

My baby eats beef tacos with sour cream

Sebastian holds onto his homemade taco

That title comes from the fact that I’ve been receiving some negative comments about BLW lately. I will have to make that a post of its own but basically some other moms aren’t so keen on the fact that I’m not afraid to give Sebastian sugar and spice and everything nice. Today’s vice? Oh-so-good greasy…

Choices

IMG_9318.jpg

Often, I give Anneliese things one at a time. But sometimes I like to give her several foods at once and see what she chooses, what her reactions are, and what she prefers. This time I gave her deli turkey, a cylinder of cucumber, a red bell pepper slice, and a hunk of steak. The…

Candy…I mean Bacon

IMG_5902.jpg

We LOVE bacon in our household. My husband and his friends get together and just eat bacon and play video games, that is how much we love bacon. So we finally gave Pri a piece of bacon. She made her daddy proud. She absolutely loved it. It won’t be something she eats all the time…
