What This Vegan Mom And Her One-Year-Old Eat In A Day

In a recent video on her YouTube channel Let’s Eat Plants, Maddie shares a glimpse into her daily routine of feeding herself and her one-year-old daughter, also known as “Baby Plants.” Focusing on simple, whole-food meals to support healing and growth, Maddie emphasizes breastfeeding on demand, offering water throughout the day, and incorporating playtime and bonding with her daughter.

Breakfast usually consists of oatmeal with fruit, followed by a mid-morning snack if needed. Lunch features tofu scramble, toast, and fruit for her daughter and an orzo salad for Maddie and her partner. Transitioning to a baby-led weaning approach, Maddie faces challenges with texture and food choices but seeks guidance from resources like the Solid Starts app. Dinner is a quick veggie pasta dish, with a backup quinoa meal for her daughter if needed, as she navigates through balancing repetition with meal variety.

As a new parent, Maddie remains open to learning and adapting to her daughter’s changing preferences and needs. Despite mealtime challenges, she remains positive and appreciative of the experience, sharing her journey with her viewers and seeking advice and support along the way.
