zucchini carrot meat mash

Here is another dish which fast to make. I served it over some cooked buckwheat porridge or it can as well be mashed potatoes or some rice.
(9 moths - onward)

This dish was created for a quick dinner as I didn't have a lot of time and my baby was getting hungrier and hungrier. Nevertheless she ate it all.

I took:
1/2 medium carrot, peeled and cut into small cubes
2 baby zucchinis, peeled and cut into small cubes
1 baby meatball
salt and pepper to taste (omit this if your baby is younger than a year)
about 2 tbsp creme

Preparation:
Put carrot, zucchini and a meatball in a small pot cover with water and bring to boil. Season and cook until all the ingredients are soft and can be easily mashed. Add water during cooking if necessary. Add creme right in the end, stir, bring to boil and let it thicken a bit.
Take off the heat, let it cool and blend to desired consistency. (I recommend to break the meatball to smaller piece before using a blender.)
It yielded 2 baby portions. I froze one for later.

As I already mentioned before you can serve it with some grains or potatoes.

VARIATIONS:
If you don't want any beef in the dish or feel your baby is too young for beef, you can use chicken meatballs or about a quarter of a chicken breast cut into cubes.
You can add some herbs like thyme or rosemary (for chicken). Just make sure you don't putt to much. A pinch is more than enough.  

Have a lovely meal.
For now...
take care there.
