Last night I was referring the recipe book "100 BLW recipes for baby" and decided to cook the cheese and vegetables pancake for my 20.5mo lo as I found that she likes vegetables very much. Everytime I stirfry vegetables for her, she can finish all the vegetables.

Breakfast : Cheese and vegetable Pancake & fresh milk (I have modified a bit the recipe)

Lunch & Dinner : Mix pasta with mushroom sauce & Strawberry juice

Teatime : Strawberry Angel cake & Mung Bean dessert

ORIGINAL RECIPE of Cheese and Vegetables Pancakes

Cheese and Vegetables Pancake

Ingredients:

1 small potato

1" carrot

2 tsp potato starch (can replace by all purpose flour)

2 tsp corn flour

3 tbsp grated cheddar cheese

1/4 tsp garlic powder ( can omit or replaced by crushed garlic )

same dried parsley (optional)

Steps:

1) shred the potato into a bowl of water (soak for 15mins, purpose is to remove excess starch)

2) shred the carrot and block cheddar cheese, set a side.

3) cut the baby spinach into tiny size, set a side.

4) Drain the soaked water of the potato, squeeze dry.

5) mix thoroughly all ingredients in a big bowl.

6) warm some olive oil in a frying pan over low heat. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the hot oil and flatten on top (so they resemble mini pancakes)
