We have found that chick peas (garbanzo beans) fit very nicely into our lives (and her tiny hands). They are very inexpensive, full of protein, and a non-messy finger food (I cut them in half to avoid possible choking hazards).
They are also an easy on-the-go snack. I can toss them in my food processor as well to make hummus and spread on a wrap and roll it up. It's a fun food for her, and I feel better knowing that she is eating well, learning to feed herself, and we did not have to break the bank on pre-packaged baby food.

Garbanzos are a favorite snack of all three of my children. They eat them by the handful. I do, too. Yummy!

Oh, it's sooo nice to read of a mother who isn't touting the latest sugar cereal or toaster pasteries as the quick and easy way to feed baby! My boys would pass the cookie isle in the grocery store in favor of the broccoli and still do as adults. To paraphrase a Bible verse, "start them out eating right and they won't depart from it." Lucky baby you have!
