Salmon Baby Food
You might not think of salmon as a first food for your baby – after all, salmon is a kind of fish, and doesn’t fish taste, well…kind of fishy?
But if you haven’t been a big salmon eater up until this point, you should know that salmon does not have a fishy taste. In fact, salmon has a more savory, rich flavor, and is often described as buttery, thanks to its high-fat content. This, combined with salmon’s soft, flaky texture makes it a great choice for beginning eaters to manage.
This guide will give you 5 easy ways to incorporate salmon into your baby’s diet – served as baby food purees, made into herby salmon bites, flaked and stirred into pasta with veggies, or simply roasted and served in soft strips. Salmon is a perfect choice for your baby whether you are doing purees or baby-led weaning. These recipes are great for babies 6 months – 2 years of age!
