Tuna, beef and chicken combos

Hi all,

Here are some ideas for protein mixes for bubs from the super mum of twins Angela May. Thanks for the ideas Angela, these look like some yummy combos!  

Tuna

Can use tinned tuna in springwater
  • Tuna, sweet potato and Apple
  • Tuna, asparagus and cottage cheese (can use tinned asparagus which is nice and easy or fresh asparagus if you feel like cooking it). Just mix all three together and warm in microwave.  
  • Tuna, avacado and cottage cheese    
Chicken
Can use cooked chicken breast, or bbq chicken. Up to you if you want to steam, boil, grill chicken, or you can cook a whole chicken in the slowcooker and it is really tender and falls off the bone. Remove first skin and bones and break up into whatever size your bub is capable of eating. You can then freeze whatever you dont use. 
  • Chicken, zuchinni and sweet potato 
  • Chicken, potato and swede  
  • Chicken, potato and cottage cheese
  • Chicken, pumpkin, zuchinni 
  • Chicken, carrot and apple  
The list is endless, you can pretty much mix any vegetable with any meat. Choose your bubs favourtites and go for it!

Beef
Cook with your choice of cooking method.
  • Beef, carrot, and zuchinni 
  • Beef, pumpkin, apple  again choose almost any vegetable to mix with beef    
Cous Cous
Cook as per instructions on the packet 
  • Cous cous, pumpkin and apple
  • Cous cous, tinned tomato and any vegetable you like. I add the tinned tomato to the cous cous in the sauce pan when it is just about cooked and heat through, then place however much i want in bubs plate and add my pre cooked vegetables and mix together.
