Weaning your baby is an exciting milestone and a big step for both of you. Your baby’s development is advancing and will now be entering a whole new world of taste.

Starting your baby on solid foods might seem scary but its doesn’t need be -  here you will find information about the first stages of weaning: the best first foods, fruit & vegetable purees and introducing different flavours and textures in your baby’s diet.

Explore these simple baby recipes, which are easy to follow and taste delicious; without spending hours in the kitchen. Every ingredient is safe for your baby and the meals are nutritionally balanced and satisfying.

Once your baby is over six months & you’ve introduced plenty of fruits and vegetables, it’s a good time to add fish, chicken and red meat in the purees. Here are some new baby recipes for you to try, perfect for the summer and perfect for tiny tums:-

Between 7 and 9 months old, you should start introducing lumpy food and texture to your little one's diet as chewing helps develops the muscles your baby needs for speech. Stirring tiny pasta shapes into your baby’s puree is a really good way to introduce texture - the Make It Easy Organic Pasta Shapes have been especially designed for babies from 7 months.
