Ohhhh... never thought of limas. Will have to give that a try.
1 year old DD loves avocado... which led to her swiping some california rolls from DH. They are a special treat for her
beans of any kind - they can be kind of bland, but you can season them up in various ways and they are a fun "finger" food. I give DD canned beans (GASP) which I rinse, rinse, rinse first.
I have found that DD will eat pretty much anything if she sees me eating it first. Then she MUST have some, lol! So sometimes I will purposely let her see that she is getting O's and mom is eating... something else. Then I let her "steal" some and down the hatch it goes.
Do you eat indian food? Saag paneer might be a good start.
