📝 Editor's Note

For first-time introductions, ensure the texture is smooth and adjust based on your child's chewing abilities. You can also mix in some cooked quinoa or brown rice for added texture and nutrition.

  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

  1. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  2. Add ground turkey and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Stir in diced carrots, peas, and potato.
  4. Pour in chicken broth and sprinkle with thyme.
  5. Cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes until vegetables are tender.

💡 Tips & Tricks

Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or freeze in ice cube trays for easy portioning. Adjust the texture by blending less for a chunkier consistency as your baby becomes more adept at chewing.
