In the weaning book i have got which is the annabel karmell one, it seems ok from first stage weaning.  Ellen has had broccoli and couliflour.  She hates broccoli but will take a little couliflour mixed with carrots and sweet potato. xxx

Dizie you can offer the Broccoli and Cauliflower now i know that for deff but not sure on the green beans, but i would have thought they would be fine, they are veggies and so are good for them, just be warned cauliflower can make lo a lil runny, so you may wanna add some baby rice to it to help a lil.

 

hth and happy munching

lol just seen this post.  I have given Ollie cauli and brocolli from the beginning so about 5mnths.  Beans are a little harder to digest for them so can make them a bit constipated if not cooked properly but are still alright to give from early on, I wouldn't start off with them but introduce them once weaning is firmly established so by 6mnths would be fine.  Have to admit I haven't tried baked beans yet but I know heinz do a baked bean tin for babies from 4mnths old, I just wouldn't want to change that nappy!

Goodness me whatever next!

Go with your instinct I say!  I know that Africans give their los pureed chicken when weaning and I can't see what harm greens would do as long as the lumps are well and truly squished!!
