Baby Pasta dan Sedikit Resepi

Last week aku terjah Carrefour Puchong yang baru tu. Nenda and atok Imaan nak beli barang sikit so I pun follow macam biasa tak suka tinggal rumah sorang-sorang walaupun ada Imaan. Aku plan nak carik Yoplait untuk Imaan. Nurul Jamian kata dia biasa beli kat Carrefour. Aku selalu juga carik kat Tesco, Cold Storage tapi selalunya tak jumpa Yoplait untuk 6 bulan ke atas. Selalu jumpa yang setahun ke atas saja. And kali itu pun aku hampa. Takde Yoplait tapi aku jumpa Heinz Baby Pasta! Comel gila pasta ni, comellah taktahu nak cakap macam mana. Halus-halus je.

pasta comel. harga satu pek around RM6/7 kot. aku lupalah T_T

Sehingga entri ini dipublish aku belum masak lagi baby pasta ni pasal Imaan masih tak pandai kunyah makanan. Porridge pun masih perlu blend. Kalau tak blend berjanggutlah tunggu dia nak habiskan semangkuk. Mangkuk kecik je bukan besar pun. Anak aku tak kuat makan.

Aku hanya nak share resipi pasta untuk baby kita. Dah boring makan bubur or nasi, boleh cuba pasta pulak. Pakai pasta biasa pun boleh tapi baby pasta ni unsalted and comel-comel. (^_^)

Please take note, pasta is typically introduced to baby from 8 months of age.

Cheezy Orange Pasta

1 cup cooked pasta
1/2 pureed or chopped soft cooked carrots
grated cheese

Mix carrots with the cooked pasta and then sprinkle with cheese

Pasta Chicken Stew

2 cups sodium-free chicken broth 

1/2 cup elbow or ditalini pasta
1/2 cubed chicken breast
1/4 cup of frozen peas
3 tablespoons chopped onion

Add chicken broth to a medium sized saucepan and bring to a boil.
Add pasta, chicken, peas and onion
Turn heat to low and simmer until the chicken is cooked and tender

Puree or mash the stew as needed for your baby's texture preference.
Serve warm, adding a sprinkle of cheese if desired 

Cheesy Pasta Stars

125g (4 oz) carrots
30g (1 oz) butter
3 medium tomatoes (approx 200g), ripe tomatoes, skinned, de-seeded and chopped
50g grated Cheddar cheese
2 tbsp pasta stars cooked until soft

Steam the carrots for 15 to 20 minutes or until tender.
Warm the butter in a separate pan, add the chopped tomatoes and sauté until mushy.
Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese until melted.
Meanwhile cook the pasta stars in boiling water according to the instructions on the packet, then drain.
Mash or puree the cooked carrots in an electric hand blender, together with 3 tablespoons of the liquid from the bottom of the steamer and blend together the tomato and cheese mixture.
Finally stir in the cooked pasta stars.

Aku malas nak translate kepada bahasa melayu, so aku copy paste je. Korang semua dah besar belajar tinggi tinggi mesti boleh baca bahasa inggeris kan. Kalau ada yang tak paham google je. HIHI.
