Mum's Own Recipe Overhaul Leigh

Mum’s Own Recipe has been working with psychologists and nutritionists to improve the taste and texture of the Mum's Own Recipe range.

The new and improved range has tasty recipes tailored for each stage of baby’s development.

You can choose the texture that's relevant for each stage of your baby's development (look for the age rating label on the bottle):

• Mashed, for babies seven months+: It’s time to get your little one starting to investigate lots of new stimulating tastes and textures that are easy to manage, yet start to encourage chewing to help your little one develop.
• Tender pieces, for 10 months+: Now your little one is starting to chew, it’s time to introduce more texture and exciting recipes. This helps to ensure they are not fussy eaters later in life.

As small, soft pasta pieces encourage little ones to cope with slightly more texture from seven months Heinz has launched five new Mum’s Own Recipe pasta meals, inspired by mums Ann, Rachel, Emma, Tina and Michelle. They are: Cheesy Tomato Pasta Stars, Cheesy Pasta with Ham, Sweet Potato & Red Pepper Pasta Stars, Pasta and Pesto Chicken and Cheesy Vegetables with Spaghetti.   

We gave some samples to mums to test with their youngsters and this is what they had to say:
 
“Pasta and pesto chicken was an interesting combination. The one I tried was the mashed one for seven months+ and Amy certainly didn't turn her nose up at it."
Meg, mum to Amy, Horley.

The range also includes newly extended age ranges for existing recipes, such as Cottage Pie, Sunday Chicken Dinner, Vegetable Bake.

All Heinz Mum’s Own savoury products contain no added preservatives, no artificial flavours or colours and no GM ingredients as well as low salt content and a quantity of iron.
