Green Beans as Finger Foods


My hungry munchkin loves fresh green bean puree. He wasn't a huge fan of green beans as packaged baby food, but I don't blame him. That stuff is gross.

Today I (over) steamed green beans and chopped it up into little bite sized chunks (think cheerio sized) and served it to my hungry munchkin as finger food. Danny loved it! He started by pulling a chip monk impersonation and trying to store up the chunks in his cheeks. We had to clear out his mouth and start over again. During the next try he started breaking the green beans apart and nibbling on the little chunks. Much better! We'll continue working on it... I have to remember that eating finger food is an acquired skill for these youngsters.
