Today we\u2019re cooking green lentils for baby!
These tiny legumes are packed with protein, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants, making them a wonderful, healthy addition to your baby\u2019s diet.<\/p>\n

Since lentils are already rich in protein, there\u2019s no need to combine them with meat, fish, or egg. They provide just the right amount of protein on their own, perfect for a baby-friendly meal.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re pairing the lentils with carrots, a baby\u2019s favorite veggie!
Carrots are full of vitamins, help brighten baby\u2019s complexion, and can even help soothe digestive discomfort like colic.<\/p>\n

(Note: WHO guidelines currently recommend introducing lentils from 15 months, but we\u2019ve personally had no issues offering small quantities earlier, always well-blended and mixed with other vegetables.)<\/em><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what you\u2019ll need to make this smooth pur\u00e9e of green lentils, carrots, and onion for baby
From 8 months, this recipe makes 3 portions of about 200g (7 oz) each:<\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/h2>\n
    \n
  • 300 g (10.6 oz) carrot (about 3 large carrots, peeled)<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • 70 g (2.5 oz) green lentils<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • 75 g (2.65 oz) small onion (peeled)<\/strong><\/li>\n
  • 3 teaspoons canola oil<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Preparation<\/h2>\n

    \"Lentils\"LentilsLet\u2019s start with the green lentils<\/strong>.
    I chose organic green lentils.
    Cooking them is very simple: place the green lentils in three times their volume of cold water.
    Once the water comes to a boil, cook for 25 minutes<\/strong>. Let\u2019s go!<\/p>\n

    \"Lentilles\"LentillesMeanwhile, let\u2019s prepare the carrots<\/strong>.
    Wash, peel, and slice them into rounds (I ended up with 300 g \/ 10.6 oz<\/strong> of carrot slices).
    Place the carrot slices into the steamer basket.<\/p>\n

    \"Carottes\"CarottesNext, let\u2019s move on to the onion.
    Peel it and cut it into several pieces.
    Add the onion pieces to the steamer basket along with the carrots.<\/p>\n

    \"Oignon\"Oignon\"Carrot\"Carrot<\/p>\n

    Cooking<\/h2>\n

    Time for the steaming! Steam the carrots and onion for about 12 minutes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

    Once all the cooking is done, transfer the carrots, onion, drained green lentils, and canola oil into a blender.
    Blend until you get a nice textured pur\u00e9e (from 8 months, it\u2019s good to start offering slightly more texture like a coarse pur\u00e9e).
    I added a little of the cooking water from the carrots and onion to lighten the texture.<\/p>\n

    And there you have it, your Green lentil, carrot, and onion pur\u00e9e<\/strong> is ready, and baby is going to love it!<\/p>\n

    Bon app\u00e9tit, little one! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
