This week, we're sharing a tip from our newest Infant Care Specialist, Elizabeth. She's great at setting up the fridge for new families and making snack time easy for families with multiple children. She has a pro strategy on some items to keep stocked that are versatile enough to eat for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and, of course, they're great right out of the fridge or pantry.
Pantry:
Tub of plain almonds
Tub of walnuts
Handful of sunflower seeds
Home made trail mix full of nuts & seeds
Dried apricots
Dried prunes – which are low GI & very rich in fiber
Refrigerator:
Tub of berries e.g. raspberries, blackberries
An apple, pear or peach
Half a grapefruit for a sit down snack
A good handful of cherries
3 or 4 plums
Fruit salad of strawberry, kiwi & grape
Sliced veggies - carrots, zucchini, etc.
Hard boiled eggs
Be sure to stock your fridge and pantry with some of these snack items before baby comes.
