Baked Beans

[Urchin]

Hey all

I have always bought the low salt/sugar baked beans, but obviously they do still have some salt in.
I checked and they have 0.7g of salt per 1/2 can.

Has anyone else given their little one baked beans yet?

Braydon has baked beans and loves em

Ewan loves them too

 

Not yet, I'm terrified of giving him things like that because of salt content, and I don;t know if he'd get too much of it. I am pretty ruybbish when it comes to thinking up dinners now He has packet stuff as it stays down better, but there are about 3 dinners and 3 puddings in the 7month section

What were you gonna give him baked beans with?

Maybe cheesy mash or something....I hadn't thought that bit out yet.

Beans are really good for you but I'm not sure about the salt thing yet, I can't rememebr when I gave Mason beans for the first time.

Rubie has special baby baked beans by heinz, they are pureed and not salty

Lydia has baked beans...she had some with sausages for dinner tonight actually.
I mean she doesn't have it ALL the time, but maybe a couple of times a week. She loves them.

I've given Reece beans before, he loves them. I only give him them when he's had nothing else with salt in that day. Like veg and taties.

Not tried Ella with beans yet - but now I know they do a lo salt version then I will try her out with them. I think they'll be good for her to try and chew

 

[Urchin]

I think next time I go shopping I'll make sure the ones I already buy have the lowest salt then I'll try him with them.

 

[Rosieroo]

Is it the sauce that has the salt or the actual bean? If they were washed off would they be less salty?

 

[Lauz_1601]

would you mash up the beans? Couldnt they choke on them coz they are quite small to be chewed?
here we go again little miss paranoid about choking

beans and cheesy mash sounds good though, Im starting to give Ella what we have for tea, dont do the ice cubes anymore becuase she eats more now Id need loads of ice cubes lol.,

You're not paranoid at all I wouldn't mash them for Ella (my E) as she's pretty good with lumps and it would be something else for her to try and chew. But if she hadn't had lumps yet I'd mash them

 

[Urchin]

I'd roughly mash them, so they were still lumpy but not too round.

 

[Rosieroo]

I suppose actually it depends on who cooks them - as when DH does them they're like bullets for some reason!!

 

[Lauz_1601]

I think Id do that too Urchin, becuase she is good with some lumps, but I think I whole bean would be too big for her.

I got her some organix crisps and she shoves the whole thing in her mouth sucks it and swallows it so she manages that ok. Im just always wary with new things! Was with the crisps at first but then saw she was fine with them!
