What you will need:
2 boxed of Vegetable Stock or Broth
1 can diced tomatoes
4 Carrots
1 Turnip
5 stalks Celery (with or without greens)
3 Leeks
1 Parsnip
1/4 cup Fresh Chopped Parsley
Egg Noodles or alphabets (Optional)
Rice Cereal (Optional)
When I make Veggies as finger foods I usually make soup as well.
In two boxes of Vegetable stock or broth I add, 1 can diced tomato with the juice, 4 peeled and diced carrots, 1 turnip peeled Diced, 5 stalks of celery diced with greens, 3 leeks cleaned and diced, 1 parsnip peeled and diced, 1/4 cup fresh parsley diced. Cover and cook on medium heat until the vegetables are tender and soft enough to crush between your fingers. When soup is done add egg noodle (or Egg alphabet pasta) to soup. smaller egg noodles can be found in the kosher section of most stores.
** Note*** When dicing veggies they should be sizes that your child can easily handle without choking. Children should always be attended to while eating.
This soup has multiple purposes... It is a great Adult soup that has no fat and is great for you. For toddlers you can pull out the veggies for finger food. If your child is having a hard time picking up these pieces dust them in rice cereal to make the pieces less slippery.
