Sushi Tuna Balls (3 Ingredients)
These 3 ingredients ??make up the perfect Sushi Ball ?? for #babyledweaners 6mo+ packed full of iron, zinc, B12, goodness ?? and yumminess (if that’s a word ?). Super easy to pick up for little fists ? and even a great snack or meal ready to go in the fridge. ✅Sushi rice is the best rice to use as it sticks together nicely so you can form a ball. ✅Avocado: A wonderful “good fat” food for baby’s brain and physical development, a great first food for babies 6mo+ instead of refined cereals. ✅*Cold-water fish including salmon, herring, canned salmon, canned tuna light or sardines are a great source of DHA in a babies diet. DHA plays a crucial role in retinal and brain development and is especially important for children in the first two years of life. (note: ensure all bones are removed from fish as they may be a choking hazard. Also note tuna light has the least amount of mercury in canned fish but do limit tuna due to mercury levels. We would offer tuna light to Ava once every fortnight when she was 6mo+. Canned salmon is also another great alternative). (Ref: The Environemental Defense Fund (one of the world’s largest environmental organizations) *note: fish is a potential allergen for some babies/kids. If you suspect an allergy or have any concerns or qns about allergies please discuss with your doctor.
