Yes, we use to live in Botany, Auckland - my DH has a contract in Saudi for 3 years and we've done nearly 1.5 years already. My Mum and step-children arrive tomorrow so we are sooooo looking forward to that. Mum and my step-son are staying for two weeks and my step-daughter is staying with us until the beginning of December when I will bring her back to NZ with Zac and I for our Xmas holidays.

Here's a few lunches that Zac likes...actually there hasn't been anything that I have given him that he doesn't like!!!!

Tortilla With Cream Cheese and Banana
(Makes 2 portions)

1 small ripe banana
1 soft flour tortilla
1tbsp full fat cream cheese

Mash the banana. Spread the flour tortilla with the cream cheese and the mashed banana. Roll the tortilla into a long sausage and then chop into small circles, approx 2 cm in diameter.


Fish Fingers with Carrot

2 small fish fingers
2 small carrots

Grill the fish fingers then cut into small pieces. Pell and chop the carrots, then put them into a pan with a little water and bring to the boil. Simmer until tender.


Avocado With Chopped Cooked Chicken

1 avocado (of which you will use 1/2)
1/2 smalled cooked chicken breast
2 fingers of fresh bread

Peel and halve the avocado. Mash the avocado and finely chop the cooked chicken breast, then mix the two together. Serve with bread.


Cheese and Onion Mash

1 medium potato or sweet potato
1tsp olive oil or unsaled butter
1/2 medium onion, finely chopped]
2tsp cheddar cheese, grated

Peel and chop potato and cook until just tender. Drain, then mas with approximately 2tbsp breast milk, formula or full-fat cows milk
Heat the olive oil or unsalted butter in a frying pan and saute the onion until it is really soft. Add the onion to the mash with the grated cheddar cheese and mix together.]]> Sun, 24 Sep 2006 06:12:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=73590&title=baby-food-recipes#73590 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=73574&title=baby-food-recipes#73574 Author: ellabellame

Yeah I was thinking of snacks AND lunch ideas! Its so great to get new ideas as I like being able to give Flynn a good range. Thanks for all your ideas and recipes!Did you used to live in NZ? I will look up that book. One little snack I make is marmite on white bread, with grated cheese sprinkled over it, then I cut into fingers before putting in the oven. I then bake at 130C for about 15-20 mins and put them in an air tight container. They are like a biscuit and Flynn loves them ]]> Fri, 22 Sep 2006 08:29:10 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=73243&title=baby-food-recipes#73243 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=73234&title=baby-food-recipes#73234 Author: Kim

I am lucky to be in Saudi Arabia where I don't have to work and I have someone who does my housework and ironing so I have plenty of spare time!

Do you mean morning and afternoon tea or lunch as I've got some quick lunch recipes as well - the book I am using is called Baby Healthly Eating Planner by Amanda Grant. Not sure if you can get in NZ though.

Here's some morning and afternoon tea ideas - Cucumber sticks, apricots and cream cheese, steamed vege sticks, rice cakes, cut up fruit, yoghurt, bread sticks and hummus.]]> Fri, 22 Sep 2006 03:30:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=73234&title=baby-food-recipes#73234 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=73229&title=baby-food-recipes#73229 Author: DairneW

This one is for babies 10-12 months.

Fruity Moroccan Lamb Burgers

These burgers can be fried grilled or cooked in the oven. If you are grilling them, be careful not to let the edges burn. Giving babies any food that has very dark or crispy edges, such as chargrilled or barbecued food should be avoided.

1tbsp olive oil
3 spring onions finely chopped
pinch of ground coriander
500g lean minced lamb
50g dried dates, finely chopped
1tsp fresh coriander (optional)

If oven cooking, preheat the oven to 200.
Heat the oil in a heavy-based frying pan and fry the onions until just soft. Add the ground coriander and cook for a further 2 mins, stirring often.
Transfer the onions to a bowl, then add the lamb, dates and coriander and mix together well with your hands.
Mould the mixture into about 20 little burgers. Wrap in foil and freeze.]]> Thu, 21 Sep 2006 19:36:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=73192&title=baby-food-recipes#73192 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=73190&title=baby-food-recipes#73190 Author: Kim

2 basil leaves
Freshly ground black pepper (optional)

Glad Mikey liked it! - I am going to try this recipe for Zac this weekend.

Salmon, broccoli and pasta

100g tiny pasta shapes
200g broccoli, cut into small florets
200ml formula milk
20g plain flour
20g unsalted butter
Freshly ground black pepper
100g Cheddar cheese grated
200g cooked salmon cut into small chunks

Cool the sauce before adding the other ingredients and then freeze, so that the cooked fish is only reheated once

Bring a pan of water to the boil and cook the pasta following the packets instructions. Cook the broccoli over the boiling pasta water in a steamer until just tender. Drain and reserve.
Preheat the oven to 180.
Mix together the milk, flour and butter in a saucepan. Heat gently, stirring constantly with a whisk, until you have a smooth sauce.
Season with pepper, add half the cheese and stir until melted, then stir in the cooked pasta. Stir in the salmon and broccoli and pour into an ovenproof dish. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for 25 minutes until golden.

For lunch or as a snack I make baby french toast.
30mls of breast milk or formula milk, one egg, mix it really well with a fork. Get two slices of white bread, cut the crusts off and soak in the mixture. Heat a little oil in frypan and fry the bread until golden on bothe sides (about 1-2 minutes each side?) Flynn loves it! I found he either likes really smooth foods or the complete opposite!! He loves finger food (won't eat any lumpy food unless mixed with a lot of custard!) so I cut a few veges into cubes like pumpkin, potato & kumera and boil. I also through in a stalk of brocoli and some cheerios. Then he just picks through what he wants while I eat my dinner in peace!!! He totally prefers to feed himself! ]]> Sat, 16 Sep 2006 09:34:26 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=72096&title=baby-food-recipes#72096 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=72055&title=baby-food-recipes#72055 Author: Rachael21

Oh why don't you go and check out what the baby food at the supermarket has in it??]]> Fri, 15 Sep 2006 13:03:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71817&title=baby-food-recipes#71817 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71758&title=baby-food-recipes#71758 Author: Maya

I used to give Maya rice boiled with silverbeet. I would chop the silverbeet up really fine and then boil them together so the iron etc. from the silverbeet was absorbed into the rice. She loved it, and when she was a bit older I'd add a bit of chopped chicken or something as well.

She won't touch silverbeet now tho - her Daddy told her it's yucky... ]]> Fri, 15 Sep 2006 10:56:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71758&title=baby-food-recipes#71758 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71702&title=baby-food-recipes#71702 Author: lizzle

Taine pretty much eats anything, but I often make him vege and fruit combos...carrots/parsnips/apple, Kumara/pear, he alsao (thanks to his brother) enjoys little chicken sausages. Jake tends to feed him much like you would a small puppy.]]> Fri, 15 Sep 2006 07:25:29 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71702&title=baby-food-recipes#71702 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71694&title=baby-food-recipes#71694 Author: meow

I used to make spinach and feta omlettes for Ella.. those were a favourite and she had one at least once a week. Can't remember much else of what she ate then! ]]> Thu, 14 Sep 2006 22:57:13 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71694&title=baby-food-recipes#71694 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71688&title=baby-food-recipes#71688 Author: nikkitheknitter

The choking thing will stick around until they learn to work through it. i hated it but just had to persevere!

To start with chunkier things I used to grate carrot and courgette and saute in a little bit of butter and garlic. It was soooo gooooood!

Han also loved to eat cooked spinach and brocolli. Weird child. I'd just give her a pile on her tray and she'd go nuts with it!]]> Thu, 14 Sep 2006 21:59:59 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71688&title=baby-food-recipes#71688 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71681&title=baby-food-recipes#71681 Author: ellabellame

yea i've tried giving mikey what we eat but he still chokes and throws up if there's any lumps, it's so annoying. i need to buy one of those mini-blender things, what are they called? that way i could just blend up what we're having for him. at the moment i have to make him things that are easy to mash.]]> Thu, 14 Sep 2006 21:30:45 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71681&title=baby-food-recipes#71681 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71633&title=baby-food-recipes#71633 Author: aimeejoy

Han pretty much eats whatever we do now, maybe Mickey could too? Some of her favourites are mince and pasta (I boil the mince up with a Oxtail soup mix and lots of veges), fish fingers, those Aria farm meat chip things, or she just has a whole lots of veges roughly mashed together.]]> Thu, 14 Sep 2006 15:59:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71633&title=baby-food-recipes#71633 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3737&PID=71605&title=baby-food-recipes#71605 Author: ellabellame
