Baby Dhal Purée

Red lentils provide your healthy baby with a bounty of protein, vitamins, minerals (especially iron) and fibre. Serving lentils alongside carrot and
zucchini which are high in vitamin C will help your healthy baby absorb the iron more efficiently. The iron and vitamin C combination is especially important if
your healthy baby doesn’t eat meat, because vegetable sources of iron aren’t as easily absorbed.
