I wanna try!" ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931975 Thu, 06 Nov 2014 08:40:07 +0000 Ms.SK 1931975@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You could try steaming some carrots, green beans, etc a little so that they are a little more soft but crunchy in the middle. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931624 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 20:32:31 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1931624@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometimes I put it on crackers or toast...but usually we just scoop it onto her tray and she eats it with her fingers. Its messy...but she eats more when she can feed herself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931537 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 19:28:49 +0000 Foodnerd81 1931537@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MUI831: hahahaha. Oh autocorrect. Yup I meant sabra. Same brand my friends son reacted to. I get cedars brand now and she's never had a problem. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931521 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 19:10:36 +0000 Mommy Finger 1931521@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: Do you mean Sabra and not Santa? :) That would be awesome since that's the brand that we were buying. I was going to bring it up at his 2 yr appt. Thanks for the info! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931504 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 18:54:17 +0000 Foodnerd81 1931504@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mostly on a spoon. Sometimes on crackers or steamed carrots or something but often she licks it off and tosses the vehicle anyway so I do spoon. </p> <p>@MUI831: I had the same thing- she had bright red splotches on her face everywhere it touched, including where she rubbed her hummusy hand on her eye. I asked the ped, even brought in a pic at her 12 month appt, and they said it sounded like just a skin reaction to some additive in it, not a real allergic reaction. Since it's one of her few proteins that she eats they said to keep trying. Turns out it's only Santa brand and everything else is fine. Same exact thing happened to my friends LO.</p> <p>Eta: meant Sabra, not Santa. The autocorrect is too funny to change. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931448 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 17:59:35 +0000 dolphin 1931448@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: I would have never thought to serve on a spoon either! I always thought of it more as a dip. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931446 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 17:55:09 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1931446@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MUI831: bummer! I'm glad it wasn't a more severe reaction! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931427 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 17:36:57 +0000 Mommy Finger 1931427@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS loves hummus by the spoonful. We would just buy a container and let him have his fill. Unfortunately, he started getting red patches around his mouth from it so we don't let him have it anymore as we fear some sort of allergy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931406 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 17:23:52 +0000 KT326 1931406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My 2.5 year old loves to just eat it by itself. I always offer it with something like bell peppers or crackers but most of the time he just licks it off :happy: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931395 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 17:18:35 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1931395@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never would have thought to give it to her straight. Heck I may eat it that way ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931388 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 17:16:50 +0000 blackbird 1931388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She just eats it straight....like yogurt :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931380 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 17:14:34 +0000 alohaorchid 1931380@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Friend of mine gives her one year old hummus on a spoon and she loves it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931373 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 17:11:39 +0000 regberadaisy 1931373@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ditto to above.

She's 12 months old. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931354 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 17:02:25 +0000 littlejoy 1931354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: For the baby, I just put globs on her tray. She gets messy, but loves it. I've also put it on little grain crackers, or on pieces of toast. I'm having "vehicle" trouble for softer spreads and foods right now too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931349 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 17:00:51 +0000 swurlygurl 1931349@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>...On a spoon? :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931343 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 16:58:22 +0000 cmomma17 1931343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Sunshine: on toast!!</p> <p>Eta: or my LO will also happily eat it by spoon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-do-you-serve-hummus#post-1931330 Wed, 05 Nov 2014 16:52:09 +0000 Mrs. Sunshine 1931330@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know it's generally eaten on fresh veggies or crackers but are there any other ways I'm not thinking of? LO is 14 months &amp; can take normal sized bites of crunchy veggies but spits them out &amp; won't chew them. She likes/is able to eat crackers but I don't know if I want that to be the only vehicle to serve her hummus on. Any other ways you serve it? </p>
