Instructions
Egg and Mango Puree
- In a blender or food processor, add the cooked egg yolk and mango. Starting on low and increasing to high, blend the ingredients until smooth and creamy.
Scrambled Eggs
- In a small skillet, over medium-low heat, add the butter and let it melt. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the eggs to the skillet and with a spatula, gently move the eggs around until curbs start to form. Swirl the pan so that the entire surface is covered with tbe eggs. Cook without stirring until the bottom is starting to set, but the top is still runny roughly 1 - 2 minutes. Sprinkle the chives on half of the eggs. Reduce heat to low. Using a spatula, gently fold over half of the eggs to make a half-moon shape. Let cook for 1-2 minutes or until the middle is set. Let cool and cut into strips or chunks.
Mashed Egg and Yogurt
- On a cutting board, place the hard-boiled egg yolk and the yogurt. Using the back of a fork, mash the two together until completely incorporated. You can leave it chunky or mash until smooth. Serve with a baby spoon or a self-feeding spoon for baby-led weaning.
Egg and Avocado on Toast
- On a cutting board, place the hard-boiled egg or just the yolk and avocado. Using the back of a fork, mash the two together until completely incorporated. You can leave chunky or smooth depending on preference. Scoop the mixture up with the fork and place on the end of a piece of toast. Hand baby the dry side of the toast.
