What is Iggy Eating Lately?

Friends have being curious with what I feed Iggy with...

 
This is the latest!

PASTA!  Spirals vegeroni to be exact.

"Huh?  Pasta?"
"Pasta?  Why not rice porridge?"
"Should give him rice porridge lah"

etc..

That's the usual responses I get.  Ok, ok pasta might not be a typical food for a Chinese baby, but why not?!  Pasta is healthier compare to noodle in the market.  Besides, I looove pasta and most of all Iggy seems to love it too, hahaha.

The recipe:

1 or 2 handful of spirals vegeroni (cooked until soft)
some cauliflower, potatoes, pumpkin (cooked until mushy)
1 teaspoon of olive oil
bits of kraft cheese

Mixed everything together and you are done! Super easy!

  3. His interests in pasta had decreased. Largely due to the fact, he prefer tastier food now, current recipe is a bit bland for him. Mummy yet to have time to create a tastier pasta recipes for him...

  5. Hi Claire,

    I'm not a creative mum that comes up with new recipes on purpose .. :P
    At 15-months, Iggy is an adventurous eater, who likes to try everything he saw his Daddy and Mummy eating. He might not be a big eater but he definitely likes variety of food. I think you'll be amazed (or scolding Mummy for feeding him with such) at what he tried. ie. sambal petai, pork fatty skin, mooncake, .. to name a few.... Luckily, he also will not tired of the same food everyday, as long as it's not too plain and it's something he likes.

    So whenever I cook for him, I just throw in anything that I find fit for a toddler. You'll find oddest combination of ingredients in Iggy's meal .. :P Have you ever heard someone cooked rolled oatmeal with seaweed?? Personally, I don't dare to taste it, coz it's 'fishy'. But Iggy seems don't mind the fishiness and likes it. I'm lucky he's not a picky eater ... :D

    No wonder Baby Belle loves it .. :D

    Now, sometimes Iggy will has oatmeal and sometimes he will has rice porridge, depending on how diligent mummy is ... :P

    Sometimes, I cooked his rice porridge with ayam kampung stock.. wah! he really loves it ... haha

    But all in all, I think he still loves oatmeal the most.. at least he hasn't rejected oatmeal yet! Touched wood :P
