Why you're going to love this casserole

  • Highly customizable
  • Makes a lot so you'll have plenty of leftovers to enjoy later in the week or freeze
  • LOADED with iron, an essential nutrient for babies and toddlers

Best Iron Rich Foods for Babies and Toddlers

Ingredients

Chicken - feel free to use breast or thigh meat. Can use store-bought rotisserie chicken as well.

How to cook chicken PERFECTLY for babies and toddlers

Quinoa - While you can use other variety, I recommend yellow quinoa for this recipe.

Vegetables - Sweet potatoes for flavor and texture (You can mash and combine it with other ingredients for baby. Helps prevent tiny quinoa from flying everywhere. Can we say amen to less mess?)

Serving spinach to babies can be tricky. Adding it to casseroles works great!

Black Beans - Look for low or no-salt-added. Rinsing will also help get rid of a lot of sodium. You may also be interested in this creamy Greek yogurt black bean dip!

Sauce - Refer to the FAQ section below

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Cook onion.
  2. Cook garlic, tomato paste, and cumin
  3. Cook sweet potatoes until softened
  4. Add the rest of the ingredients
  5. Transfer to a baking dish and top with cheese. Leave it out completely or add a little bit to baby's portion.

Tips for Success

  • If able, I highly recommend that you cook the chicken and quinoa ahead of time. That way you can whip up this quinoa casserole easily on the day of. As for chicken, make a big batch so you can enjoy throughout the week in sandwiches, lentils, oatmeal, toast, etc!
  • Sweet potatoes - Cooking in water along with the aromatics will not only help build flavor but will ensure they won't be crunchy once baked. Be sure to cook until softened not mushy since they will go into the oven to cook more.

A note about cheese

This is one of the best "tricks" to making a casserole for the ENTIRE family, including your baby. I like to load up on cheese, but that's not ideal for babies as their kidneys cannot handle too much sodium.

So leave it out for baby's portion (can add a little bit, if you wish) and add as much as your heart desires to the rest.

Related Post: Salt/Sodium for babies

Storage Suggestions

Store in an airtight container and refrigerate for 3-4 days. If freezing, Transfer to freezer-safe container and store for up to 3 months. I like to freeze in individual portions.

When reheating a small portion, microwave in 30-60 second increments until warmed to your liking. For larger portions, place casserole in a small dish and heat at 350°F.

It's absolutely delicious cold too!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this quinoa spinach bake in advance?

Absolutely! Combine all the ingredients minus the cheese and store in the refrigerator. When ready to enjoy, simply transfer to the baking dish, top with cheese, and bake!

What can I use instead of quinoa?

You can try this with any cooked grain, such as barley, rice, millet or small pasta like couscous. You may need to adjust the baking time.

Can I use fresh spinach instead?

I like to use frozen spinach for convenience but fresh ones will most certainly work! Add 3-4 heaping handfuls.

Can I make this vegetarian?

You bet! You can leave out the chicken completely.
Between black beans and quinoa, there's plenty of protein and iron. You can also add tofu, if you wish!

Can I make this dairy-free?

Just like how I suggest for younger babies, you can leave out the cheese completely or substitute with other non-dairy alternatives.

Which tomato sauce should I use?

You can use either homemade or store-bought. If going with the latter, look for one with the lowest amount of sodium. I personally like Rao's. This is really good with my iron-rich pasta sauce! The recipe makes a lot so you can totally freeze and use it for this casserole.

And if you'd like to add a little Mexican flare, try it with salsa, too!

Quinoa Casserole for Babies

Be sure to mash the black beans for younger babies

For 6-8 month old:

Finely chop the chicken and mash the beans and sweet potatoes. Serve with mashed avocado or yogurt to not only boost nutrition but also to make it easier for baby to scoop with their hands or to preload onto a spoon.

This one is my absolute favorite for this age!

Less is also more at this age as seeing too much food can be overwhelming for them. You can always serve more following your baby's lead.

For 9+ month old:

Finely chop chicken. There's no need to mash anything.
