| If you want your child to grow up liking fish then you should try this super delicious baby food recipe of mini fish pie, which is simple to prepare. Salmon provides a good source of essential fatty acids. If you make these in ramekin dishes they will be just the right size for your child to enjoy without feeling there is too much on the plate. It is a good idea to keep a stock of these mini fish pies in the freezer for days when you don’t want to cook.
You can buy mini ramakins in my ‘Make Your Own’ range at Boots or online at: www.boots.com |

That old saying that 'Fish is Good For The Brain' is absolutely true. Oil rich fish such as salmon and sardines are especially good brain boosters. This is down to their high levels of omega-3 essential fats which are vital for brain function and can help the performance of dyslexic and hyperactive children. You should include oily fish in your child's diet at least once a week.

My (10 month old) baby adores this Fish Pie and ate it enthusiastically! From my point of view, it was nice and easy to make, as it avoids the usual cheese sauce process.
