Mamas Breakfast (560)
Mama's Breakfast recipe came to be when I just wanted to feed my girl what I was eating for breakfast, as we see other parents so often do! It created a bond between her and I, just with a simple recipe and a simple name.
Equipment
- 1 BlendTec (Vitamix could also work)
- 1 Food strainer (Holes have to be as small as the g-tube extension tube your child is using)
- 1 Food Scale
Ingredients
- 8 oz Unsweet Vanilla Almondmilk Yogurt
- 1/4 cup Strawberries
- 1/4 cup Blueberries
- 1.5 oz Shredded Wheat Cereal
- 12 oz Unsweetened Almond Milk
- 1 tsp Safflower Oil
- 1 tsp MCT Oil
Instructions
- Add liquid ingredients (milk and oil) to BlendTec
- Add berries, yogurt, and shredded wheat to BlendTec
- Blend on Fruits and Vegetables cycle once, then blend on Batter Cycle twice (the berries seeds could potentially clog a feeding pump, so if using that you want to make sure the ingredients are pulverized completely)
- Label 4 plastic smoothie containers (see link for the kind I use!) with the date and name of recipe while food is blending.
- Zero out food scale with bowl on top. Once zeroed out, place strainer over bowl and begin to pour food formula through the strainer. The weight without the strainer will be the food quantity you'll then measure out.
- Divide total weight in oz by 4. This will be the amount used for each bottle. (For example, total formula weight of entire recipe is 30 oz; you'll put 7.5 oz per bottle)
- Pour equal amount into four separate bottles.
- Can be stored in the fridge up to 3 days, or in the freezer for 3-6 months.
- Shake, warm if necessary, and bolus feed through the g-tube.
