A. Here is a detailed food chart for a 1-year-old baby to ensure balanced nutrition while introducing a variety of textures and flavors. General Tips: Meal Frequency: 3 main meals + 2 snacks. Milk: Offer 500-600 ml of breast milk or cow's milk daily (if not allergic). Portion Size: Start with small portions and let the baby ask for more. Hydration: Offer 4-5 sips of water with every meal and keep them hydrated. Sample Daily Food Chart Morning (7:00 AM) Breast Milk/Formula/Cow’s Milk: 150-200 ml Breakfast (8:30 AM) Option 1: Suji (semolina) upma with boiled vegetables Option 2: Oats porridge with fruits (e.g., apple, banana) Option 3: Mashed boiled egg with toast or roti Tip: Add a little ghee or butter for extra calories. Mid-Morning Snack (11:00 AM) Option 1: Seasonal fruits (mango, banana, papaya, apple – mashed or small pieces) Option 2: A boiled potato or sweet potato Option 3: A handful of puffed rice or makhana Lunch (1:30 PM) Option 1: Khichdi (rice + lentils + vegetables) with ghee Option 2: Soft roti mashed in dal and a vegetable like spinach or carrots Option 3: Rice with curd (if no lactose intolerance) and boiled vegetables Tip: Add 1-2 teaspoons of ghee for good fats. Evening Snack (4:00 PM) Option 1: A fruit smoothie made with milk and banana/mango (no sugar) Option 2: Homemade cookies or a small piece of cheese Option 3: Ragi porridge with jaggery Dinner (7:30 PM) Option 1: Vegetable soup with small pieces of soft bread Option 2: Dalia (broken wheat) khichdi with vegetables Option 3: Mashed boiled egg with soft rice or roti Before Bed (9:00 PM) Breast Milk/Formula/Cow’s Milk: 150-200 ml Foods to Avoid Salt and Sugar: Keep them minimal. Hard Foods: Nuts, popcorn, or raw carrots (choking hazard). Honey: Avoid until 1 year to prevent botulism. Spicy or Fried Foods: Hard to digest. Additional Notes Texture: Gradually move from mashed/pureed foods to soft solids. Introduce Variety: Rotate fruits, vegetables, and grains for a diverse diet. Allergy Watch: Introduce one new food at a time and observe for reactions. If you’d like specific recipes or more guidance, let me know!
