4 Weaning Soup Recipes

Winters are the best time to enjoy soups! Soups are liked by all, children or adults. Most of us struggle to feed our babies after we start weaning. Honestly, I am one of the moms struggling to make my baby eat.

Soups to the rescue! 

Soups can be introduced to baby for a change. Also, they act  as saviours when baby is down with cough and cold and refusing milk too.

Here are some recipes which I have tried for  my baby. Hope your baby enjoys these too!

1. Tomato Soup  

Ingredients:

• Ripe Tomatoes
• Water
• Butter/Ghee
• Black Pepper Powder

Method:

• Blanch the tomatoes in boiling water for 2-3 minutes.
• Now, the skin can be easily removed.
• Remove the skin and blend the tomatoes in a grinder.
• Now, you can heat a little bit with butter/ghee and black pepper powder and serve steaming hot!

(If you haven’t before, introduce black pepper slowly)
