Healthy Meal for Breastfeeding Moms
Posted by in meal on December 12, 2011
Since a DHA rich diet is encouraged while breastfeeding, salmon is a great menu item to keep on hand. A DHA rich diet promotes brain growth in your little one and is a low-fat source of protein for mom too. Get a nice steak size piece of salmon and drizzle it with extra virgin olive oil, salt and pepper and broil it in the oven. In a pan on the stove saute up some red pepper until it is nice and soft. At the last-minute, toss in some golden raisins and kalamata olives just to warm them up. Pour your pan concoction over your salmon and there you are ready to eat.
A second great source of nutrition for you and baby is spinach. Spinach is a great source of iron and calcium, which are two nutrients that breastfeeding moms need more of. Spinach can be a great addition to your favorite meals such as omelets for breakfast, salads at lunch, or pasta dishes at dinner. Adding spinach to your favorite salad greens will boost the nutrition of the meal. Breastfeeding women need a whopping five servings of calcium a day. Prepare your favorite pasta dish and after combining all of the ingredients with the pasta, keep the whole pot over low heat and add a few large handfuls of spinach to the top and put a lid on the pot for a couple minutes. The spinach will wilt into the pasta and is ready to be served. The little bit of heat will steam the spinach in just a couple of minutes and add nutrition and flavor to the dish.
