When the child is able to swallow the first food with little problems without problems, we begin to crush the mashes less, to let them chew the larger pieces, always watching so that they do not have difficulties. The introduction of new textures should be progressive until the incorporation of solid foods.
In the market there are more and more food jars with pre-cooked pieces, fit for this transition to the solid. These are some of the options:
- Hero baby with bits. It is one of the best known and easy to find brands in the market. It has a varied range of recipes for babies from 12 months (veal to the hydrangea, chicken with vegetables, turkey stew ...), with menus made with olive oil and essential fatty acids and low in salt.
- Nestlé First Menu. They are small pots with pieces of vegetables that present the varieties of chicken, beef or hake. Also for children from the year of life and nutritionally balanced.
- Hipp Gourmet Menu. These are pasta menus for microwaves, for children from 12 months. An interesting option, since they are made with biological ingredients and there are also different varieties (starlets with vegetables, spaghetti and Bolognese lasagna).
- Milupa Bledichef. In this brand we have 2 type casseroles: from 8 months, with small pieces, and from 12 months with larger pieces. The containers are type dishes, suitable for the microwave. There are different recipes: vegetables and fish, zucchini and macaroni, rice and chicken and spaghetti Bolognese.
Anyway, let's think that although these pre-cooked small pieces They meet all the necessary food standards and may be fine for any occasion when we need them, a meal prepared at home with the ingredients we control will always be healthier.
