Babies are introduced to solid food at 4-6 months, starting with fruits and vegetables before adding chicken for its mild flavor and nutrients. Chicken puree is a common first food, followed by mixed purees and textured meals like chicken and rice or stews. Chicken and pasta is introduced when the child can chew food. Store-bought options are available.
Babies are typically introduced to solid food between the ages of four and six months. The first foods are usually fruits or vegetables, but after a child gets used to consuming solid foods, it is recommended to add meat to his diet. Chicken is usually the first meat introduced because it has a mild flavor and many beneficial nutrients. As a child gets older, they typically eat many different types of chicken baby foods, such as chicken puree, chicken and fruit, chicken and vegetables, chicken and rice. Other types of chicken porridges can include chicken stews, chicken and pasta.
A child’s first experience with chicken is usually a simple chicken puree. This is done by boiling a chicken breast and then using a food processor to break down the chicken. Usually water or chicken stock is added to the chicken mixture and everything is mixed until smooth. This type of chicken porridge is delicate and tasteless to give the baby a chance to get used to the new taste and texture of the chicken. Regular store-bought chicken puree is also widely available in supermarkets.
A variety of fruits and vegetables can be mixed with chicken puree to make baby food. Popular combinations include chicken and apples or chicken and peaches. Vegetables such as carrots, sweet potatoes, green beans and peas can also be mixed with chicken to make a meal for a child. If there is no time to prepare this food at home, jars of different types of chicken with vegetables or fruits can be purchased at a grocery store. This type of early stage baby food is usually a very smooth puree, so it is easy for a baby to swallow.
After a baby is comfortable eating pureed, baby food with more texture can be added. This type of baby food usually consists of chicken and rice or chicken stews made with a variety of vegetables. This type of baby food is mixed gently to leave soft bits of food in the mixture. An older child will usually be spoon-fed this type of food, but some parents may decide to let their child attempt to finger feed chunks of food.
Chicken and pasta is a type of chicken porridge that is served when a child has learned the skills needed to eat solid foods. This type of baby food requires a baby to know how to chew food before swallowing. Chicken and pasta are typically made up of small pieces of pasta, chunks of chicken, and vegetables that are cooked until very soft.
