Sprout Baby Food and Toddler Meals were created by Food Network regular Tyler Florence. We give Linna the Sprout Toddler Meals for dinner, and sometimes lunch. She likes these meals, except for the Vegetable & Potato Stew, which is odd because she normally will eat that type of thing if I make it at home. I think she "turned that one down" because she was coming down with a cold. Otherwise, she LOVES these little meals! They are all organic, and made with simple, whole ingredients. They're the types of meals I would make at home, but when my husband and I decide to have pizza or something "naughty" for dinner, we pull out one of the Sprout meals for our one-year-old (we're setting a great example, right?!). I love the taste of the Vegetable & Potato Chowder. When you open these meals, the food kind of looks like dog food, until you nuke it in the microwave. I love that they offer "comfort foods", like macaroni & cheese, but use butternut squash instead of a ton of cheese, cream and butter. Sprout utilizes vegetables to make these comfort foods a little more healthy. The meals are about $3.50 a piece, and you can find them at Target, Babies R Us, etc. Sprout Toddler Meals are a great options for parents on-the-go, when they want to make sure their little one is eating a healthy meal!
