Generally speaking, the primary source of nutrition for 10 months old baby should still be milk, whether it is breast milk or formula. By the end of the 6th month of your baby’s age, you can start introducing regular food (so-called solids). If you bottle-feed your baby with formula, you can begin with solids as soon as your baby turns 4 months. If you are looking for an inspiration for what to cook for your 10 months old, keep on reading.

 

Recipes for 10 months old babies

Soups are the perfect choice for the smoothest transition from milk to solids because of their fluid consistency (they resemble milk the most). Soups are easy and quick to make. You can use almost all kinds of veggies.

Do not forget – the baby sees - the baby does. If mommy has a positive relationship with veggies the baby, he/she is more likely to love them, too. Vegetables are the most essential part of everyone’s diet, not only kids’. They are rich, nutritious and full of vitamins. They can cover almost everything your baby needs for his/her proper development and growth (besides protein). Babies are naturally curious, so show your baby veggies and other foods in books, at greengrocer’s, in the garden, he/she will love it.

Try to use as many veggies as you can. You can use vegetables in soups mentioned above, but also in spreads, sauces or you can make veggie fritters (they make a great finger food!)

 

Risotto with cheese and veggies

Rice is easy to digest. It makes it an excellent food for babies. You can prepare it in the form of risotto, adding any seasonal veggies.

You will need: 1 carrot, ¼ kohlrabi, 1 floret of broccoli, 1 floret of cauliflower, 2-3 drops olive oil, a handful of rice, cheese

Soak the rice in water (ideally overnight) then rinse and drain well. Cook it in a pot with enough water, add the veggies (the grated kohlrabi and the chopped carrot). Simmer until soft and tender, remove from heat, add olive oil and grated cheese. You can serve it topped with parsley.
