#91: Starting solid foods doesn’t mean buying special baby food, or adding weird ingredients to your shopping list.
In this episode, I’m showing you how to use pantry staples you already have to support baby-led weaning. You’ll learn what to look for on labels, which shelf-stable foods actually work for babies, and how pantry planning can make offering new foods feel less overwhelming and more realistic.
If starting solid foods feels expensive, confusing, or stressful, this episode will help you simplify and feel confident moving forward.
Listen to this episode to learn:
• Why you don’t need a separate “baby pantry” to start solid foods…and how to use shelf-stable foods you already have to support baby-led weaning
• What to look for on food labels so you can quickly choose pantry foods that are low in sodium, free from added sugar, and appropriate for your baby
• How pantry planning makes starting solid foods less overwhelming and helps you consistently offer a wider variety of foods with confidence
