Ingredients: Carrot & Cauliflower & Corn

Carrots provide complete nutrition to the body. Carrots are rich in fibre and have an extremely high beta-carotene content, which has been found to be very beneficial for the eyes. They have many other health benefits, including giving protection against coronary heart disease and several cancers, notable lung cancer. Carrots will ensure that baby has a healthy skin and it will stimulate her immune system. Freshly squeezed carrot juice is an excellent weaning food, followed by pureed carrot that can later be mixed with any other veggie for a yummy treat.  At around ten months spoil baby with lightly steamed carrot strips as a finger food and from this age grated carrot could be added to almost any dish to provide extra nutrients, texture and fibre

Cauliflower is high in vitamin C and linked with lower rates of cancer. They can lower the risk of heart disease and stroke, counter anaemia and help regulate blood pressure. Cauliflower is also high in selenium and therefore good to strengthen the immune system and give your baby protection against various infectious diseases. Cauliflower also acts as a blood and liver detoxifier.  Cauliflower has the potential to cause wind in a baby prone to colic, it might therefore be a good idea to rather serve it at lunch time instead of supper.

Corn is rich in vitamins, mineral salts, fibre and protein. They are low in fat. Corn is a good source of folate and therefore helps with the generation of new cells. It provides more starch and more calories than most vegetables to provide energy for baby. It helps to stabilise blood sugar levels and is good for eye development and digestive health, due to the high fibre content. Maize meal is a good choice for a starter cereal, since it generally does not cause food allergies or intolerances.
