I've made this several times for my daughter since she was 18mth or so and it has always gone down well. I serve it one night and freeze the rest for easy dinners another time. Chopped peppers make a nice addition if your little one likes them

 

Grate the carrot to hide it from the kids, I like that idea. Also, I recommend using organic kidney beans (I get mine from Asda, other supermarkets available). Different flavour and texture, I prefer them and the kids will actually eat them.

 

Does anyone know if this is suitable for freezing?

 

Have made this several times as my 16 month old loves it. Have always had to freeze at least half and have had no problems. I have always used it within a month though - but no doubt it would survive for longer. Baby has loved it fresh or defrosted!

 

so tasty, a little bit sweeter than other recipes, but my son loves it and so nutritious!

 

I've made this several times now for my little girls (1&2 years) and it always goes down really well they love it and its very easy to make.
