Healthy complementary feeding for babies: purées and Baby Led Weaning

/in

Should we feed our babies purées or solid food? Is there a mixed Baby Led Weaning? If you want to begin introducing solid foods, you are invited to a talk next Wednesday 6th November at 10 am on healthy complementary feeding for babies from 0 to 12 months of age. Maria Cabrera, dietitian and nutritionist, will give us tips to prepare healthy and balanced menus and how to present them, whether as purées or pieces of food, following the Baby Led Weaning method. We will also have a tasting of food prepared in different ways and all the attendees will be given sample menus and healthy recipes.
