Ingredients:

  • 2.2 oz. of chicken (65 grams)

  • 4-5 medium-sized broccoli florets

  • 1.1 oz. of macaroni (about 30 grams)

  • A Tablespoon of grated cheese

We use macaroni because it is easy to use for baby food recipes. 

Instructions:

Step 1 – Make sure the chicken is skinless, boneless and the muscles etcetera are removed.

Step 2 – Chop the chicken into small pieces and cook it for 10 minutes. Make sure there are no pink spots left.

Step 3 – Cook the macaroni for 8-10 minutes until soft. In this case, we don’t want the pasta to be al dente.

Step 4 – Clean the broccoli and cut off 4-5 medium-sized florets. Cook them for about 10 minutes or steam them for 8-10 minutes.

Step 5 – Add all the ingredients to a blender and add a little bit of water or formula.

Step 6 – Blend it into a nice puree. Add some more water or formula if needed.

Step 7 – Serve the dish warm or pour the puree into small food storage containers to store or freeze it.

As early said, you should consider providing your baby these meals in small quantities as too much of it might cause diarrhea to the baby due to too much soluble fiber in the baby food. Seek the help of a baby pediatric before you can introduce the baby to broccoli and chicken.
