We\u2019re going to give these little baby meals a bit more texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I decided to try a new cheese, one with a fairly bold flavor&#8230; Parmesan! I love Parmesan and wanted her to try it. She completely loved it, which is great! I chose it as a whole piece (not pre-grated, I prefer to grate it myself) and pasteurized (raw-milk cheeses can carry infectious diseases, so it\u2019s best to avoid giving them to baby).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I chose all the ingredients for this baby meal around the cheese: zucchini as the vegetable, with a little potato for the starchy element. I added fresh basil, which goes beautifully with Parmesan. And finally, egg for protein.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here is what you need to make this zucchini and scrambled egg recipe with fresh basil and Parmesan for baby (from 10 months):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>about 1\u00bd cups peeled zucchini (220 g)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>about \u2154 cup peeled potato (100 g)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>1 egg (we will keep two thirds)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>\u00bc cup grated pasteurized Parmesan (20 g)<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>A few fresh basil leaves<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2 teaspoons olive oil<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Preparation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We\u2019ll start with the egg. Cook it for 10 minutes in boiling water to make a hard-boiled egg. Once cooked, remove the shell and keep two thirds of the egg (you can eat the remaining third &#x1f600;).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1794\" title=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/oeuf-dur-pour-bebe.jpg\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/oeuf-dur-pour-bebe.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/oeuf-dur-pour-bebe-500x252.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/oeuf-dur-pour-bebe-300x151.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/oeuf-dur-pour-bebe-768x387.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/oeuf-dur-pour-bebe-1024x515.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/oeuf-dur-pour-bebe-1170x589.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/10\/oeuf-dur-pour-bebe-585x294.jpg 585w\" alt=\"Hard-boiled egg for baby\" width=\"1200\" height=\"604\" data-pin-title=\"Zucchini, Scrambled Egg with Basil and Parmesan for Baby\" data-pin-description=\"A delicious little meal from 10 months!

There is no need to add cooking water, as the zucchini has already absorbed plenty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then you have two options:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">1 \u2013 Mix all the ingredients together (be careful with the Parmesan: if it tastes too strong for baby, baby may refuse the whole meal! Add a little first to one spoonful of the baby food, and if baby likes it, you can add it to the rest).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2 \u2013 Serve a little egg together with the vegetables without Parmesan, or serve only the vegetables with Parmesan&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a personal choice; for example, you can try the second option before mixing everything together! &#x1f609;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Storage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This little baby meal is great for baby\u2019s lunches. Here is how to store it so it stays fresh and ready to enjoy:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Refrigerator<\/strong>: You can store uneaten portions in the refrigerator for up to 2 days in an airtight container.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Freezer<\/strong>: For longer storage, this recipe freezes well. Divide it into individual portions, place them in freezer-safe containers, and label them with the date. You can keep them in the freezer for 3 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Thawing<\/strong>: When you want to use a frozen portion, transfer it from the freezer to the refrigerator the night before. Then reheat it in the microwave or in a saucepan using a water bath until warm, stirring regularly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Make sure to check the temperature of the baby food before serving it to baby to avoid burns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enjoy your meal, baby!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our babies are growing up&#8230; and the bigger they get, the more we need to adapt the recipes we make for them, as well as the quantities&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9922,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[293,175,261,250,338,49,309,353,7,51,370,371,72,310,54,80,55,348,347,43],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9921","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-baby-food-recipes","category-10-months","category-11-months","category-12-months","category-18-months","category-age","category-cheese","category-lunch","category-puree","category-ingredient","category-aromatic-herbs","category-basil","category-egg","category-parmesan","category-potato","category-vegetables","category-zucchini","category-spring","category-summer","category-vegetarian"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9921","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9921"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9921\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":10185,"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9921\/revisions\/10185"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9922"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9921"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9921"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.cookingformybaby.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9921"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
