Baby food recipe 6: Chicken Pasta

Baby food recipe 6: Chicken Pasta

Ingredients: 

• 1/4 cup cooked pasta
• 1/4 cup cut vegetables (grated carrot, sliced yellow squash, chopped spinach)
• 1/4 piece cooked chicken breast
• 2 tsp olive oil
• 1 tsp mixed herbs
• 2 tbsp pasta sauce

Method:

• In a skillet, heat olive oil, add cut vegetables and herbs. 
• Add fine chopped chicken. 
• Add pasta sauce and stir fry for 2 minutes. 
• Add cooked pasta and cover and cook for another minute. 
• Add little water or more pasta sauce if you need more moist pasta.

To serve: 

Transfer pasta in a plate and place a cheese slice immediately on the top and let it melt.

Please note:
I usually pressure cook the chicken to make sure the meat is well cooked.  Also, I use the left over water for moistening the pasta.

Usually I use any organic pasta.
If its not tiny shaped like mini pasta shells, then after the pasta is cooked and cold, I pulse it in vegetable chopper, to chops it in tiny pieces. It saves me time to cook 2 different pastas,I for the baby and one for us.

Any mom out there is welcome to try these out - of course as always, do keep in mind what your baby might be allergic to and as always, consult the pediatrician before introducing any new food.
