Because I get a lot of questions about food and nutrition I thought I would post some of my more inspired menu items that I come up with for Olin. Also, I should really put that expensive NYU nutrition education to some sort of use!
So with that, the first installment of Feeding Olin is rooted in desperation to get Olin to eat a meal that I have tried to feed him no less than a half dozen times without success - wild salmon, broccoli, and some sort of grain. Last night's grain of choice was quinoa and like the previous attempts, he did not eat a single bite. So today for lunch, determined to get him to eat this nutritionally packed trio, I added a little melted mozzarella as a binder to last night's left-overs of quinoa with bits of broccoli and salmon, formed the mixture into balls, coated the balls with Panko, and fried them in a little canola oil to make my own version of baby-sized croquettes. The verdict: he loved them - he ate every last bite - finally!
Have a great long weekend everyone!
