One Pot Quinoa & Veggies

This recipe is for 6+ months

If you haven’t introduced quinoa to baby yet this is a great recipe to start with, that you can share with your little one. This comes out so tasty and introduces baby to lots of different flavors and textures, expanding baby’s pallet. Quinoa is one of those grains that are more elite than the others, it has everything required for baby’s growth and development. Quinoa is a complete plant protein with lots of antioxidants, iron, omega-3, omega-6, B Vitamins and calcium. Whenever I make this for my little one I am happy knowing he is eating a hearty, healthy, nourishing bowl that is easy on the tummy and great for digestion.
