Toddler Food Chickpea Curry with White Rice (Vegan) | 12 Months and Above | 200g

Imagine your toddler’s eyes lighting up as the aroma of gently simmered spices fills the air—a cozy Irish kitchen alive with curiosity and warmth. Hug in a Bowl’s Chickpeas Curry with White Rice is here to turn mealtime into a discovery zone. Designed for little ones 12 months and older, this vegan dish marries creamy organic chickpeas with fluffy basmati rice, all swirled in a golden blend of coconut milk, organic onions, and a whisper of ginger-curry herbs. Each bite is a gentle adventure: tender chickpeas roll like tiny treasures on the tongue, coconut milk adds silky sweetness, and fragrant spices awaken their palate without overwhelm.

We’ve crafted textures to nurture independence: soft chickpeas mash easily for beginners, while rice grains encourage tiny jaws to practice chewing. Our secret? Slow-cooking onions and ginger until they melt into the curry, creating a base as comforting as a lullaby. It’s vegan nutrition made joyful—no compromises on taste or development.

Busy day? Heat in just 2 minutes (stovetop or microwave), giving you time to sneak a deep breath or join their giggles. When your little one dips their spoon for “more,” you’ll know they’re fueling up with plant-powered protein for growth, iron for energy, and fiber for happy tummies.
