#134 - Dry meats and breads can be a choking hazard...but adding sauces, dippers and toppers is an easy way to make these foods safer for baby-led weaning. I’m joined by Aileen Cox Blundell of @babyledfeeding who is sharing some super sauce ideas for BLW.   The commercial sauces you buy at the store also tend to be too high in sodium for babies to eat, so Aileen is dishing on making dips and homemade sauces that are affordable, easy to put together and that you can freeze for future use.   Be sure to check out the shownotes page for this episode to grab 2 of Aileen’s BLW sauce recipes: her Easy-Peasy Basil & Spinach Pesto and The Best Ever Curry-in-a-Hurry recipe. I’m also sharing a free download with additional recipes for BLW friendly sauces and dippers and toppers that will have your baby safely swallowing in no time!   Grab my 5 LOW-SODIUM SAUCES FOR BLW with free recipes download here: http://bit.ly/podsauces   If you’re ready to raise an independent eater and prevent picky eating then let’s get started learning about baby-led weaning together!
