Baby Food Beef Lasagne | 9 to 12 Months | 180g

Picture a bustling kitchen, your little one curiously peering over their highchair as the aroma of a homemade classic fills the air. With Hug in a Bowl’s Beef Lasagne, you’re serving a timeless favorite reimagined for tiny taste buds. Layers of Irish lean beef mince, tender pasta sheets, creamy mozzarella cheese, and organic carrots, onions, and tomatoes come together in a 180g jar of comfort. Each spoonful balances silky béchamel (made with fresh milk and cream) with soft pasta and finely mashed veggies—perfect for babies aged 9 to 12 months mastering chewing skills.

We slow-cook the beef in its natural juices for melt-in-the-mouth tenderness, then layer it with pasta and organic veggies for a texture that’s challenging enough to encourage chewing but gentle on gums. No salt, no preservatives—just the wholesome goodness of Irish dairy and pasture-raised beef. And with a 3-minute heat-up time, you’ll have more moments to savor those messy, joyful mealtime giggles.

When your baby eagerly opens their mouth for another bite, you’ll know they’re getting iron from beef, calcium from cheese, and a taste of family tradition. Because even lasagne can be a baby’s first love.
