stir fried noodles


A lot of the time i give zac just some of what i have cooked up for myself. however i might change the proportions of things for his dish to favour proteins and and grains. tonight we gave zac a stir fried vegies, lentils and gluten free noodle dish. i had made it for myself and put some aside in his bowl with a higher proportion of noodles than i would have in my bowl, plus i stirred through some nut meals and added more lentils. my measurements for the following ingredients are estimates for the baby only meal.

30g gluten free spaghetti (i like San Remo brand as it doesn't just use rice flour like most gluten free pastas) cooked
a couple of broccoli florets, a few slices of carrot, a handful of peas, a few small chunks of pumpkin, leaf of bok choy finely chopped.
1/2 cup cooked green lentils
1/2 tsp golden kelp powder
tiny dash of soy sauce
dash of mirin
1/4 clove of garlic crushed
coconut oil and water for cooking
30g ground cashews and walnuts

melt a tiny amount of coconut oil in the pan and add all ingredients except spaghetti and nuts.
stir then cover so water steams vegies a bit. cook to be soft enough to eat but that the vegies haven't lost their bright colours. mix cooked spaghetti, vegies and nuts on a plate and cut with knife and fork into little pieces. you could blend all this for younger babies.
