steamed vegie finger foods


another one of the first foods we gave zac was steamed vegies. i find broccoli, carrot, capsicum were good soft textures but firm enough to grab. i would remove the skin of the red capsicum for him by dunking it in cold water after steaming to loosen the skin. pumpkin sometimes got a bit soft but he liked it when i had got the texture just right and it wouldn't break up when he pressed it up to his mouth. now that his teeth are getting better he is really liking steamed green beans and corn on the cob. we like to drizzle tahini or spread hummus or nut butters on the vegies too.
