Zucchini Pea and Rice Balls- Baby Finger Food image

Still on my quest for foods that my 10 month old will eat! These balls were a hit last night! I also tried baking some of them, but he preferred the mushy consistency!* based on the one star review i attempted this again for my second child. if made with infant formula this works great! be sure to squeeze all the liquid from the zucchini. i also added blueberries to sweeten the taste. if it seems to runny...add more wheat flour to find the right consistency.

Time 50m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 cup brown rice
1/2 zucchini
1/4 cup peas
1/2 cup infant formula
1/4 cup organic whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons butter, melted

Steps:

  • cook rice
  • steam veggies.
  • combine rice, veggies, and formula in food processor and puree.
  • Melt butter. Add butter and flour to puree.
  • If baking, pre-heat oven to 350. Roll tablespoon size balls and press with a fork a la peanut putter cookies. Bake for 20 minutes, or until bottoms are golden brown. Makes 24 baked "cookies".
  • If rolling balls, roll balls slightly larger than a pea (or what your child can handle). The batch will make A LOT of balls, but they can be put in the fridge for four days, or frozen for a month.

I used frozen peas in this recipe. It worked well, but I think fresh peas would have been a little better.

I added a little bit of garlic powder to the mixture for a bit of extra flavor. It was a great addition.

I've never worked with rice before. This is a great recipe to start with. The fritters were crispy and the peas added a nice pop of color and flavor.

These fritters were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I might have used too much oil.

I'm not sure why these are called baby finger food. They're big enough for adults to enjoy as a snack or side dish.

These fritters were a bit too bland for my taste. I think they needed a little more seasoning. Other than that, they were a good healthy snack.

I've been making these fritters for years, and they're a favorite among my family and friends. They're the perfect finger food for parties or picnics.

these zucchini-pea-rice fritters are a fun and healthy way to get your kids to eat their vegetables. The fritters are crispy on the outside and soft and tender on the inside. They're also packed with flavor from the fresh zucchini and peas.
