Recipes for Infants

  • Your baby also has taste buds 🙂 so make sure to include varieties.
  • Prepare a balanced diet which includes calcium, iron, protein, fibers, vitamins and other minerals. 
  • I suggest using most vegetables and fruits, whole wheat flour, ragi (mallet), rice, suji, pure ghee (not butter as it is less natural) and yogurt (curd) besides milk. Ragi may not be a part of some Indian cuisines, especially in north India. But this is probably one of the most important grains to be included in baby foods.
  • If your baby is one year plus, start introducing flavor of spices such as jeera and hing (if they are also part of your own cooking).
  • Most infants require 4-5 meals a day (3 full and 1-2 short) besides milk. So it has to be planned accordingly. 
  • Start only with one meal when you introduce solid for the very first time.

  • Here you go with few recipes, will upgrade soon for more.
    Hope you like it and it helps your baby.
    Happy cooking.
