I am no cook for sure but when I became a mom, I promised myself to at least level up my cooking skill little by little so I can prepare nutritious food for my LO.
In line with Nutrition Month, I'd be happy to share a few recipes or food I prepared for my LO when she was less than a year old. She was around 8 to 10 months when I started preparing her food. I did the BLW method too.
Here are a few recipes that I did.

These aren't chicken nuggets that you can buy from groceries. Instead, I made it, especially for my Lo. In this picture is Tofu nuggets. I also made other types like potato nuggets, chicken nuggets, egg nuggets, or other veggie nuggets.

- mix the meat/veggies with flour
- mold it
- Dip it in egg and bread crumbs
- fry
Sautéed Mixed veggies
Ingredients:
- butter/olive oil
- broccoli
- quail eggs

- boil the broccoli, quail eggs
- slice the broccoli into smaller pieces
- Put a little butter on the pan and sauté all the ingredients
Pancake Oats
Ingredients:
- instant or quick-cook oats
- Pancake mix
Preparation:
- Prepare the pancake mix batter. This time, use hot water so you can add the oats at the same time.
- Wait for 3 to 5 mins for the oats to be cooked in hot water.
- Cook it like a regular pancake
Buttered garlic baby potatoes
Ingredients:

- Baby potatoes or small sliced potatoes

Preparation:
- Boil the potato.
- Peal the potato or slice the potato into small pieces.

Baby Gimbap/Kimbap
This one is my favorite and takes less time to prepare. These are small
Ingredients:

- ulam for the day
- Nori sheets
Preparation:
- Put a nori sheet on a plate.
- Put rice and other ulam or viand (egg, sliced veggies, chicken, etc.) that you have on hand.
- Roll the nori sheet like a sushi or gimbap and slice it into small pieces.
The main and most important ingredient is happiness. Sounds corny but it's true and some of you may agree. Imagine spending time and effort preparing something nutritious for your loved ones, for sure they will definitely taste the happiness in the food that you prepared, and will make them happy too!
