I give my little one green smoothies, which have all the essential amino acids (protein), and i throw in some hemp seeds (teaspoon) which assures that he gets some fat, protein, omega's.. you can use flax seeds as well. hemp seeds are not allergenic so for a younger baby i would use that rather then flax.
here is a good green smoothie recipe:
few leaves of greens (swiss chard, kale, collards, etc- one type at a time is best)
few sprigs of mint.
2 very ripe bananas (ripe banana will be speckled)
handful of blueberries(fresh is best, but frozen is good too)
handful of mango chunks (fresh is best, but frozen is good too)
tspn hemp seeds ... u can also use hemp oil
2-3 Dates for sweetner (u can also use Agave, or Honey- if baby over 1)
water to desire consistency- blend.
it comes out delicious and my kids loooves it.
you can also give Almond Nut milk. My baby had severe milk and soy allergies as an infant, we tried everything.. not until we gave him nutmilk all his symptoms disappearead. In many countries Almond milk, or Coconut water is given to milk and soy allergenic babies. you should still be cautious and give a very small amount the first time.
you can also make avocado choco pudding..
use ripe avocado, carob powder, or coco if ur kid is fine w that, use a sweetner, either dates, agave , or honey if baby over 1.. blend and u get yummy pudding. u can dip some bananas or other sweet fruit.
hope it helps.
