But today was out of apricots...so used apples instead-was good but not quite as good.

Annabel-can you put up your version of this recipe too? Never remembered to copy it down.

Hi all, is it a big deal if the sulphur dried apricots are used? i cant find any others in the shops?

Crazy Jacks do sulphur free apricots and I bought mine in Tesco, you can also buy the Sainsbury's own taste the difference ones xx

Whitworths do an organic one that is SO2 free too. They have been rehydrated so are a bit softer for lo's to eat. Isabella will eat these as finger food but not the Crazy jacks ones.

Has anyone noticed that heinz now have a toddler dish for 12+ months 'Apricot chicken with rice', strangely has got the same ingredients, including sweet potato plus a few extras including rice.

Hmmmmm, wonder if someone is watching us.......
