This omelette works well cut into strips and given as a finger food for your weaning baby. It's great served with a dip such as our Tomato Sauce for a tasty baby led weaning meal. When baby is able to manage some texture you can start to add other ingredients such as vegetables and herbs. It's also great stored in one of our Food Flasks for on the go or in a lunch box for an older child.
Note: Babies can have eggs as long as they are well cooked from age 6 months.
