Family recipes toddlers will actually eat

Toddlers can eat what you eat with a few changes: serve their portion before the heat goes in, cut round foods like grapes and tomatoes into quarters, and keep salt low. Each recipe here says what to do for the little ones.

What Gluten watches for: chili heat, whole nuts and grapes, added salt, honey for babies under one, and raw or runny eggs.

Toddlers cooking questions

When can toddlers eat the same food as adults?

Most toddlers can eat family food with small changes: mild, soft, cut small and lightly salted. Ask your paediatrician about allergens and textures.

How do I keep it mild for the kids and spicy for adults?

Gluten’s swaps tell you when to take the kids’ portion out before adding heat.

Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice. Recipes are checked against the restrictions you enter, but always check labels for allergens and cross-contact, and talk to your doctor or dietitian about your diet.
