They will look different than our normal Once A Month Meals meal plans. We have them set to a standard amount to feed one baby/toddler. Reach out to us and we will be happy to send these to you as an added benefit for being a member. They don’t scale properly in our system so we don’t have them in our Menu Builder system, so please reach out to us at info@onceamonthmeals. Let us know you would like the First Foods Summer Meal Plan.

Join the discussionThank you for allowing me to be a test cook. This was so easy and my daughter’s favorite is the Green Bean Salad with the Apple, Blueberry, Peach Puree coming in a close second! I’ve never made baby food and being that this is my second child…I’m shocked I didn’t do this with my first, so thank you for converting me!
I made all recipes for the 6-9 month olds in 1 day and got about 2months of baby food. So far my little guy has enjoyed everything! The intructions were very easy to follow and it was nice that there was a grovery list provided. I did substitute a few ingredients to fit with our family. Thanks for the great recipes!
Hi,Im looking for recipes for BEGINNER foods for my little one, we’re not quiet there yet to start, but soon and Id love to be ready. Id like to start with veg purees..and am very into homemade..could you please steer me in the right direction on your site?thanks,
You can find all our baby food menus here. We rotate month to month on the ages, so you should find a good variety of the beginner (6-9 mo) foods listed!
R u sure we can give salad to 6-9 months baby? What if it chocked?
For the Green Bean Salad the instructions state to “Puree or chop as needed for your baby’s taste and texture preferences.” Since babies are all a little different you should definitely stick to what you and your pediatrician feel they are prepared to try. No one knows your baby better than you do. 🙂
