My 1-year-old is still enjoying experimenting with foods and flavors, and we're enjoying that while it lasts! Lately, we've been giving her 'deconstructed breakfast burritos' -- scrambled eggs with cheese, black beans, and a little AVO toast on the side.

My LO loves a smoothie mix of any fruit with whole milk.
~BabyCenter Parent
Old fashioned oats with blueberries and blackberries and a pinch of cinnamon. ALL the fruit.
~BabyCenter Parent
My LO loves helping me make “Green Eggs & Ham” baked egg muffin cups. Blend the eggs with spinach to make it green, add ham, and bake!
~BabyCenter Parent
Wontons from freezer section with veggie side (like cabbage, Bok choy, or a blend).
~BabyCenter Parent
Peanut butter and jelly sandwich. And Cream of Wheat with maple syrup. Mangos for a snack.
~BabyCenter Parent
Salmon cubes in teriyaki sauce with instant wild and brown rice blend plus broccoli (I have also subbed tofu for salmon and served fresh cherries as an extra side/dessert).

Vitamin D
Every serving of Horizon Organic® Growing Years® Milk delivers an excellent source of Vitamin D. In addition, Growing Years® Lowfat Yogurt Pouches deliver a good source of Vitamin D.

Vitamin D helps the body absorb calcium, in turn helping to build bones and teeth. It’s called the “sunshine vitamin” because the body can also produce some vitamin D when skin is exposed to sunlight. There are also food sources of vitamin D including fortified dairy products and salmon.
