A. For a 22-month-old baby, including nutrient-dense and calorie-rich foods in their diet can support healthy weight gain. Here are some weight-gaining Indian food options for your toddler: 1. **Full-Fat Milk:** Transition to full-fat cow's milk if you haven't already. Milk is a good source of healthy fats and calcium. 2. **Paneer (Cottage Cheese):** Paneer is rich in protein and healthy fats. You can incorporate paneer into various dishes or serve it as cubes or grated. 3. **Ghee:** Adding a small amount of ghee to your toddler's meals can provide additional calories and healthy fats. 4. **Yogurt:** Choose full-fat plain yogurt or curd. Yogurt is not only a good source of healthy fats but also contains probiotics beneficial for digestion. 5. **Bananas:** Bananas are energy-dense and easy for toddlers to eat. They are rich in natural sugars and potassium. 6. **Potatoes:** Potatoes are a starchy vegetable that can be included in various forms like mashed, boiled, or in vegetable curries. 7. **Sweet Potatoes:** Rich in carbohydrates, sweet potatoes can be prepared as mashed, roasted, or in the form of fries. 8. **Rice and Dal (Lentils):** A combination of rice and lentils in the form of khichdi provides a good mix of carbohydrates and proteins.
