Want your baby to learn to love broccoli? Start early with a simple Broccoli Butter Puree, a tasty and healthy recipe for babies over 8 months.
Broccoli isn’t exactly every kid’s favorite vegetable, probably because it isn’t inherently a part of Indian cuisine. But you can change that and get your little one to love all kinds of vegetables – by starting early!
Broccoli is one of the healthiest vegetables out there, loaded with vitamins A, B, C, E, K and calcium along with fiber and antioxidants. It promotes healthy digestion and aids gut health. The vitamin C content of broccoli helps in boosting immunity, something every parent is worried about!
Broccoli can be introduced to babies around 8 months and the best way to start is with a simple broccoli butter puree. Use homemade butter for better results.
