As you probably notice with my baby food recipes, I love to feed my little one new flavours and food combinations.
Fortunately, he is adapting to my family’s adventurous palate and he is enjoying mummy’s new creations.
Polenta is a creamy maize like mash that is s delicious if prepared correctly. I like to serve it as a side dish with meat or use it in a casserole….recipes to follow soon.
Due to its smooth texture and amazing taste, I thought my toddler might enjoy it as well when combined with a meat or vegetable.
