Babies can enjoy protein-rich quinoa just like their moms!
I love eating quinoa not only for the delicious taste and the pleasant texture, but also because I know how healthy it is. I have a hard time getting in that protein and quinoa is an easy protein-rich solution. So why not solve my baby’s protein problems the same way?
Quinoa has a nutritional profile that is similar to breastmilk, and is hypoallergenic too. It is full of important nutrients to help your little one grow. NurturMe has successfully created Quinoa options for babies and toddler to enjoy so that they can benefit from these qualities in a way that’s suited to them.

Some of NurturMe’s quinoa and other products:
NurturMe ha plenty of different forms for this superfood. They are the type of snacks and foods I can feel comfortable giving both my toddler and my infant.
Quinoa Squares:
These crackers are much healthier than sugar-laden options. They pack in extras, such as spinach, sweet potatoes, and broccoli, while your tot thinks she’s eating a cookie. My son doesn’t differentiate between cookie and cracker, and options such as these save the day during those picky-eating moods.
Yum-a-roo’s:
These little bits of goodness are my toddler’ favorite! Available in four flavor, these sneak some veggies among the fruit in your toddler’s diet. They are just that – pure fruit and vegetables. The piece dissolve easily and are easy for inexperienced mouths to self-feed. We packed some in a cup and headed to the park yesterday and M was delighted!
Organic baby cereals:
Instead of using rice as a first choice, grab the goodness or organic quinoa! It’s available in eight-serving packages and has in it organic iron to help your baby get what he needs. Just add liquid to any of these flavors and you’re good to go.
Nurturmeals blended meals:
Kids learn to like unique foods young, so why not help them out? Nurturmeals include fun veggies such as squash, kale, bananas, peas, and more, blended into a powder. Just add liquid and you have a delicious meal, full of new foods for baby to test out! They come in eight-pack boxes that are perforated to double as a dispenser. They are perfect for at home, daycare, and on-the-go!
Reusable squeeze pouches:
In addition to healthier food option, NurturMe offers parents the option of…convenient serving! You can allow your baby to self-feed at home or on the road using their reusable pouches. These open on the side and allow your baby to squeeze her own food out, while saving disposable pouches from entering the landfills.
Why I love NurturMe
Beyond the innovation of using quinoa for babies (which, coming from a family with Celiac disease, I can truly appreciate), they also offer unique solutions for giving both babies and toddlers their veggetables.
Their baby foods have mom’s needs in mind, epecially the busy on-the-go mom, who wants to give her kids the best but has too much on her hands to do everything from scratch. Their toddler foods are things that even the pickiest will go for, almost undiscernible from the junkier option, but pure and healthy.
NurturMe knows kids, knows moms, and knows how to create a solution that works for both.
