The nutrition of the baby after 1.5 years is significantly expanded. New dishes and new products appear on the menu. You no longer need to grind food, as in the first year of life. The ingredients can be cut into small pieces, and not grind in a meat grinder or blender. The nutrition of a child at this age is five times a day, three of which are the main meals, and two are snacks. One serving of food for a child older than a year is 250-300 grams.

The diet includes light soups, vegetable and fruit purees, meat and fish, meatballs, cutlets and meatballs, milk porridge. For dressing dishes, use sour cream or vegetable oil. You can add a little salt and pepper, herbs. When introducing a new product, each time monitor the reaction of the baby for two days so that there is no allergy or eating disorder.

From heavy and unhealthy food should be abandoned. Do not feed your baby fried foods, mushrooms, smoked and canned foods, marinades and pickles, sauces and seafood. For detailed information on which foods are not recommended for children under 3 years old, see. And in this article we will learn recipes for a child 1.5-2 years old.

Salads and omelettes

Salads and omelettes are great for breakfast, dinner or a snack. By the way, for an omelette and other dishes, you can take quail eggs, not chicken eggs, if the baby has a food allergy to protein.

Beet salad with prunes

• Beets - 1 small fruit;
• Prunes - 50 grams.

Beets and prunes improve digestion and improve stool. These products are great for constipation, which often affects small children. To prepare the salad, boil the beets, and wash the prunes, sort and soak for twenty minutes. Peel the vegetable and, together with dried fruits, pass through a meat grinder. For dressing, take sour cream.

If desired, chopped and pre-soaked walnuts can be added to the salad. However, this dish is not recommended for children with high blood sugar and frequent diarrhea.

You can prepare a regular vegetable salad for your baby by finely chopping the ingredients and seasoning the dish with vegetable oil. A child can be given tomatoes and fresh cucumbers, pumpkin and zucchini, carrots and radishes, small amounts of bell peppers, fresh green peas and herbs. But in one serving it is better not to mix more than four or five components at a time.

To prepare salads, you can use boiled, stewed and fresh vegetables, but preferably peeled. In addition, in such dishes you can put boiled meat and fish, nuts, dried fruits. You can find many interesting recipes for children's salads for the holiday and for every day.

Casseroles

Casseroles are a dish that many mothers love to cook. It is hearty, tasty and healthy, if, of course, you choose the right ingredients. It is better to start with a classic cottage cheese casserole, then you can gradually add dried fruits, fresh vegetables and fruits, meat and fish to the dish.

Strain the cottage cheese through a sieve and cheesecloth. The product is ready! Cottage cheese is used as a separate dish, and for making casseroles. Also, the baby can cook delicious.

Soups

Soups should be heavy and light. It is not recommended to give the baby a meat or fish-based broth. The fact is that when these products are cooked, extractive substances are formed that strongly irritate the intestines, cause digestive disorders and stool disorders. Therefore, it is better to cook meat and fish separately, and then cut into pieces and add to the finished vegetable broth. In the first months of feeding, the baby should receive puree soups, but in the second year, classic traditional soups can be introduced.

vegetable puree soup

They should be small so that the child can chew without problems. Five minutes after the start of cooking potatoes, put the meatballs and cook until they float to the surface.

While the potatoes and meatballs are cooking, peel and finely chop the carrots, stew in vegetable oil and put in the soup. Then add vermicelli and cook for another five minutes. Instead of vermicelli, you can use homemade noodles (50-60 grams). Remove the onion from the finished dish and add the greens. Let it brew for 7-10 minutes. By the way, meatballs can also be used for second courses, for example, served with spaghetti, mashed potatoes or rice.

Milk soups are especially popular among mothers. Such dishes can be cooked with rice, buckwheat, millet and barley groats, noodles or vermicelli. Pasta or cereals are first boiled in water, and then warm or hot milk is poured. Be careful with the combination of milk and buckwheat, as this is a hard-to-digest dish.
