I have a 10 1/2 month old daughter, and i just made a purchase of a chopper to cut up our foods for her, well so far ive only used it twice, once for pot roast the second for potatoes and filet mignon. any ideas of other healthy food to make for all of us?
 
baked boneless skinless chicken breasts are very healthy. Brown rice is also very good for you
 
According to a book I read, people eat rice for their whole lives, little else. So it must be good!
 
rice? hmm.. ill have to try more of it with her, thanks guys :)
 
Kay, your daughter sounds just like mine... mine's now 15 months old, and hasn't touched jarred baby food since she was around 10 months old. She's been eating directly off my plate since then. Some of her favorites now are green beans, sweet peas, meatloaf (I use lean hamburger meat, plus I drain off any grease), mac&cheese, au gratin potatoes, pork chops. I have to get 2 servings of everything because I have to feed her off my plate. She'll go to someone else's plate just to see what they have, she'll even take a bite or two but she always comes back to me. If I do try to eat something without sharing, she will do what I call the 'baby bird face'. She'll open her mouth up wide, say 'uh, uh' and stand there till I give her a bite. If I take too long with a bite, she'll actually point to her mouth as if I didn't see the baby bird face.
 
that is so cute phoenyxstarr! My daughter throws tantrums if i dont give her what we are eating! its terriable! i cannot eat ice cream until she is down, because i dont like the idea of feeding my 10mnth ice cream! :D
 
I didn't either... but then I gave in one day and gave her a couple small bites. She didn't have any problem with it, it was plain vanilla and it was only like 5 small bites. The bites weren't really bites though... more like getting a little of the melted ice cream on the tip of my spoon. Her first bite was a hoot! You will never forget their face the first time they get a bite of something that's truly cold. :D
 
I use a cookbook for babies and toddlers that has really simple food in it (it's the dummies guide to cooking for babies/toddlers, actually), and some of the recipes are HUGE hits with the entire family. stuff like baked ziti, chicken casseroles, meatloaf, etc.
 
I find it odd that food can be consumed by people ranging from infants to old people. But then again, they're both not that different...
 
Boneless chickens are healthy i think.
And fruits and vegetables are also good for childrens.

You really won't regret it. I've had it for about a year now and still make stuff out of it regularly. :)
