I can tell that many people have their reserved criticisms (at least to my face) about Remi's quasi-vegetarian diet, just as people ridicule us for not letting him consume sugar. For now, what's the harm in holding off? He'll be able to make his own food decisions before you know it, and then it will be all over for us! Besides, how many toddlers do you know that willingly enjoy pureed lentils, tvp, whole grains and a selection of at least 20 different fruits and veggies? The fact is he's growing like a champ, and our pediatrician is completely on board with our decision. So there!
Selection of his favorite homemade purees:
sweet potato
green beans
peas
corn
carrots
spinach
cauliflower
broccoli
potato
tomato
zucchini
yellow squash
blueberries
apples
pears
kiwi
strawberries
banana
peaches
apricots

You are certainly giving Rem the best possible start! I admire your dedication to do it the hard way. What a good mama you are.
I am proud of you!
