Nameeta Sohoni, our contributor, is the mum to a fast growing toddler and a very popular baby/toddler food blogger. Nameeta's blog, called NomNomMum, was conceived with the idea to document her son's growing food journey right from purees and cereals to finger food and much more. It captures her constant endeavor to feed her child healthy 'home-made' food. It reflects her strong belief in fresh healthy home food trumping packaged or fast food any day. You could read more about her culinary journey and how nutritive food can be yum and fun as well on www.nomnommum.wordpress.com!

First Food: Warm Colours

At six and a half months I started 'T' on

1. Bananas
2. Applesauce
3. Carrots
4. Pumpkin
5. Baby sweet potatoes (the thin small ones, the fibre of which breaks down far easier than the matured larger ones)

Puréed and mixed either in combinations or by itself with a small teaspoon of rice cereal or oatmeal. I must say naturally sweet food seemed to work wonders and the added bonus of it being in warm colours made it visually pleasing too.

Hint: A pinch of cinnamon made it just so perfect!
