Posted by Nikki Kovacs on
Egg whites stuffed with guacamole make a simple, nutritious, and baby-friendly recipe that’s perfect for introducing soft textures and healthy fats. To prepare, cook hard-boiled eggs and carefully remove the yolks, leaving the whites intact as little “boats.” Mash ripe avocado into a smooth guacamole, optionally adding a pinch of cumin or finely chopped herbs for flavor. Spoon the guacamole into the egg white halves, creating a colorful and creamy snack. This dish provides a balanced source of protein, healthy fats, and essential nutrients, ideal for babies around 8-10 months old, depending on their readiness for eggs.
