Big brother has swimming every week and we decided to have an impromptu make our own lunch out.  I forgot about food for the baby! I need to start planning food for LO when we're out.  I stopped taking food out for big brother when he was 2 years old and let him eat the healthiest option I could find. I've gotten out of the habit of it.  Oops.  So we bought ingredients to make a ham, cheese and avocado baguette.  The only thing I felt comfortable giving LO was the avocado. I love avocados. They're like a banana but even healthier - it's actually a superfood - high in fibre, low in carbohydrate and full of healthy fats, vitamins and minerals. I've read that you can leave the skin on so LO can grip the slippery avocado but I found the skin would come off when I peeled some of back anyway.  LO soon got to grips with it - even though he resembled a greens lime monster when he was finished.
