Introduce this dish as a hearty meal option for your baby. Ensure the beef is finely shredded for easier consumption, and you can substitute the pasta with quinoa or rice for variety.

🥕 Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup ground beef
  • 1/4 cup small pasta (like orzo or stars)
  • 1 small potato, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup diced carrots
  • 1/2 cup low-sodium beef broth
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, breaking it up as it cooks.
  3. In a separate pot, boil water and cook the small pasta according to package instructions.
  4. In the last 10 minutes of pasta cooking, add the diced potato and carrots to the pot.
  5. Once everything is cooked, drain and combine the pasta, potato, carrots, and beef in a blender.
  6. Blend until smooth, adding a little beef broth if needed to reach the desired consistency.

🍴 Serving Suggestion

Serve warm in a small bowl, ensuring it's at a safe temperature for your baby. Pair with a small serving of mashed peas or pureed fruit for added nutrition.

💡 Tips & Tricks

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can adjust the texture by adding more broth for a thinner consistency if needed, based on your baby's preferences.
