Slow Cooker Cauliflower & Chickpea Curry
This slow cooker meal is a favorite in our home and ideal for both babies transitioning to solid foods and the entire family. We include chicken thighs for added protein, but they can be skipped for a veggie version, as the chickpeas provide excellent plant-based iron. This curry is fantastic for increasing fibre, enhancing iron intake, and delivering all the nutrients your little one requires for optimal development in a single dish.

Banana & Chia Pancakes
These pancakes are super delicious and taste simple perfect to pack in hidden goodness for picky eaters!

Chia seeds contain high levels of omega-3 fatty acids for brain development, fibre for digestive health, calcium for bone growth whilst a
