Last week’s menu is a prime example of why I’m an advocate for Baby Led Weaning. After I was recently touting my one year old’s love of salmon and hollandaise sauce, I got nervous when “Salmon and risotto” night came. I feared it was a one hit wonder and he had come to his senses… But no, he double fisted the salmon, a bit of hollandaise, and the mushroom risotto until it was gone! We gave our (almost) five year old some pepperoni, carrots, and risotto which she reluctantly ate three bites of.
