Nutritional values

Zucchini contains many vitamins and is easily digestible. The wholemeal pasta also provides B vitamins and vegetable protein - a good addition to meat! Sage stimulates the intestinal function; however, you should dose the herb sparingly because babies are still sensitive.

Instead of noodles you can also cook pearl barley or prepare instant cereal groats with water.
