About Babyfood, dinner, chicken and rice
Chicken and rice is a combination baby dinner — pureed chicken cooked together with rice and usually some vegetables and broth — sold as a smooth, ready meal. Combination dinners give a baby a mix of foods in one jar once they have already taken the individual ingredients on their own.
Because the meat is diluted with rice, vegetables and liquid, these dinners are much lighter than a pure meat purée: about 51 calories per 100 grams, with only around 1.5 grams of protein and a modest amount of carbohydrate. They are convenient and balanced in flavor, but they deliver far less protein and iron per spoon than a straight meat purée.
The smooth dinner is fed as a complete meal and is mild enough to be popular with babies. It is worth remembering that the protein content is low compared with plain meat, so combination dinners complement rather than replace iron-rich foods. Feeding decisions are best made with a pediatrician; the information here is general and not medical advice.
