Broccoli and Spinach Bites
hese broccoli and spinach bites are a simple, nutritious way to get extra greens into your little one’s diet—without the mealtime battles. Made with broccoli, spinach, cheese and eggs, they bake into soft, golden bites that are perfect for baby-led weaning from 6 months+ and loved by toddlers too.
They’re ideal for busy days when you need something you can prep quickly and have ready in the fridge for grab-and-go meals. The soft texture makes them easy for little hands to hold, encouraging self-feeding, while still being gentle enough for early eaters.

Perfect for batch cooking and freezer-friendly too, these bites are one of those reliable recipes you’ll come back to again and again—especially on those days when you just need something easy that still feels like a win.
