Recipes for babies aged one to two

The stomach capacity of babies between 1 and 2 years old is relatively limited, so during this period, they should eat small meals frequently and eat more fruits and vegetables. They can take in some animal and plant protein appropriately. For example, milk is very nutritious and rich in calcium. Chicken, fish, and lean pork are rich in high-quality protein and are essential nutritious foods for babies. In addition, they should eat some coarse grains to prevent vitamin B1 deficiency.

What to eat for 1-2 year old baby

Cereals are the main source of energy in our diet. Children aged 2 have no problem digesting and absorbing cereals. Therefore, staple foods such as rice and steamed buns are still suitable for children, while foods such as buns and dumplings with fillings are more popular among children. Among the staple foods, fried foods should also be avoided. Among supplementary foods, fresh fish, various meats, eggs, seafood, etc. can provide better quality protein, fat-soluble vitamins and trace elements, especially eggs, which have high nutritional value, are easy to digest and relatively cheap, making them the preferred supplementary food for children. Soy products are traditional foods in my country. They are rich in nutrients and are a cheap source of high-quality protein.

Among the six major categories of nutrients, vegetables are also rich in vitamins and inorganic salts, especially orange-green vegetables such as bok choy, Chinese cabbage, leeks, celery leaves, etc., which have higher nutritional value.

Since a 2-year-old child's 24 deciduous teeth have grown out and have a certain chewing ability, simply cutting the vegetables into thin strips, small slices or small cubes can both meet the child's nutrient needs and adapt to the child's chewing ability at this stage.
