Isabelle has cows milk protein allergy and so far she also reacts to
wheat, eggs, potatoe, broccoli, mangoes and peaches so I need to be
really careful with the food that I give her. I've found some safe
pouches for when we are out and about but now I want to move her onto
meals like the rest of the family are having, with her allergies it's
not going to be easy.
Her absolute favourite homemade meal was
discovered recently when we were having a chicken casserole, obviously
she couldn't just have some from ours because the stock cubes contain
wheat and I was using potatoes so there's two things she would of
reacted to.
Instead I decided to boil her chicken with sweet
potatoe and carrot. I kept the water it was boiled in and used this to
make her 'free from' gravy. I have to be very careful with some free
from products as alot contain potatoe. This gravy is fine though and
actually having tasted it, it isn't too bad.
I popped it all into a little casserole dish and covered in foil and
popped it into the oven just to see if she liked it anymore than just
mashed veg with chopped chicken.
I left it in the oven for about
half an hour. I then used nuk masher to mash the veg up and chopped her
chicken up finely, poured the gravy over the top and she absolutely
loved it. So there we go, we've found her new favourite meal.
What's your little ones favourite meal?
