My boy enjoyed this from 6 months; I made the cheese sauce with cheddar only as that was what we had available and it was still very tasty.

 

Thank you so much for these great recepes, i always check the site for new food to make.
My 8 months old baby loved this, I did only use a small bit of chedder and one laughing cow cheese, a good way to get little ones used to the taste of fish.

 

This one tastes beautiful and I just made it with a cheddar cheese sauce, however, my son didn't like it much! I'm not having any luck with meats so far...didn't like chicken, now doesn't like salmon :-(

 

I tried this when my twin girls were about 7 months old and they now have it three times a week, this is a firm favourite. I also make a huge pan of the three cheeses and freeze in portions as they love it with pasta, ham and mushroom. The youngest wouldn't eat a cheddar cheese sauce but loves this one, much milder and I think very tasty.
