Comfort Meals
Fast, Familiar, Freezable
by Min Kwon
Hello! My name is Min, and I’m so
excited to be sharing my tried and true,
Caleb-approved recipes with you!

I’m a Christ-follower, registered dietitian,


wife to my husband of 11 years, and mom to
my 17-month-old boy, Caleb. This cookbook
is made possible because of him, my joyous,
adventurous eater. Oh, how I love him so!
He has been feeding himself ever since he started eating solid foods, which was
around 7.5 months (6 months adjusted). It’s been such an incredible journey for our
family. Although, the husband still jokes about how I tricked him into being on board
with baby led weaning by telling him that the baby would eat what we eat when it
turned out to be the other way around most of the time. It’s true. We ate a lot of finger-
shaped foods during the first 2 months or so.

Over time, as his pincer grasp developed and his skills gradually improved, I started
preparing more main dishes that the entire family could enjoy together, like curries
and casseroles. But I also continued experimenting with various wholesome, freezer-
friendly foods, such as muffins and breads, that were convenient and portable.

Seeing Caleb enjoying his food with so much gusto is what inspired me to write this
cookbook. My hope is that these beloved recipes of ours will make mealtime with your
little one(s) even more special!

@calebthefoodie
I want to thank you, my beautiful boy, Caleb, for being my honest (perhaps a bit too
honest at times), passionate taste-tester who wasn’t afraid to toss food on the ground
with great abandon if it didn’t meet your standards. Thank you for being patient and for
giving mommy time to keep busy in the kitchen even during your awake hours. And my
dear husband. Thank you for being my #1 fan and for loving me so well as Christ loved
the church. I also would like to thank Bumkins for all the incredible products that we
use every single day at every meal time and for being sponsors of our cookbooks.

Veggies, Veggies, Veggies
As I mentioned in the first ecookbook, one of my greatest desires and goals is to help
shape Caleb’s food preferences to where he enjoys his vegetables from early on.

I don’t know about you, but I found the biggest challenge to offering veggie-packed meals
was in prepping them. With the baby attached to my hip or pulling at my pants, it was a
nearly impossible task. I quickly learned that I MUST prep the veggies the night before or
during his naps, or else it just wasn’t going to happen. That way, when it came close to
mealtime, all I had to do was combine everything and either cook it on the stovetop or put
it in the oven. While I could do all the work the night before and just reheat the next day,
there’s something about serving him a dish (figuratively not literally) straight out of the oven
and him being able to smell all the aromas that I find appealing. I think you will too!

For all my recipes, I use either a mini manual hand chopper (when baby is napping so I
don’t make too much noise) or a regular food processor to chop the vegetables. I then
store in an airtight container until ready to use! I will even go ahead and chop extra so I
can throw them into scrambled eggs, oatmeal, savory pancakes, etc.

Along with incorporating them into various dishes, vegetables also make for wonderful
sides/snacks! I steam cooked a lot when we first started introducing solids to make
veggies soft for the baby, but now, we almost always enjoy them roasted! Not only is it a
super easy and convenient way to cook, but the possibilities are endless when it comes to
flavoring the vegetables with whatever herbs and spices you fancy! In addition, roasting
brings out a wonderful depth of flavor through the caramelization process and possesses
the ability to change food textures.

There are two different ways I like to roast:


• First way: Cut vegetables into equal-sized pieces, toss with oil of choice (I like to use
avocado or coconut oil) and seasoning(s) of choice, place in a single layer on a large
baking sheet that’s been greased or lined with parchment paper/silicone baking mat (I
prefer the latter because it makes cleanup a breeze!), and place in the oven!

• Second way: Follow the above but place the vegetables in a glass baking dish. Cover
with parchment paper and then foil or with a silicone baking mat (you can see a video
demo on our Instastory highlight)! By doing so, you’re essentially steam roasting. With
this method, the vegetables come out more tender but still caramelized. It’s what I like
to call the best of both worlds!

Cooking Chart
Use the following chart as a starting point. Every piece of cooking equipment is
different so be sure to check frequently for doneness when just getting started.
Cooking time will depend on many factors, such as how much is in the pan, size
of the vegetable pieces, and how soft you want them to be.

Vegetables Steam Roast (400 degrees F)


Spinach 2-3 min

Leafy greens
15-20 min
(kale, collards, chard, beet 5-7 min
(can make chips with these)
greens, etc)

Soft veggies
(zucchini, bell pepper, 5-8 min 10-20 min
summer squash)

Thin veggies
5-10 min 10-20 min
(green beans, asparagus)

Crucifers 5-10 min


(broccoli, cauliflower, 10-15 min for Brussels 15-25 min
Brussles sprouts, cabbage) and cabbage

Tomatoes 3 min or so 15-20 min

Root veggies 15-25 min


(potatoes, sweet potatoes, Carrots will cook faster 30-45 min
beets, carrots, etc) than the potatoes

Winter squash
(butternut, acorn, spaghetti, 15-30 min 30-60 min
kabocha, etc)

Flavoring Food
I’ve always loved cooking with herbs and spices,
but as we started our baby led weaning journey, Here are some flavor combinations you can
I grew to love and appreciate them even more! try with these vegetables:
Because I didn’t want to have to cook separately
for the baby from what the husband and I were
eating, I really experimented with flavoring our zucchini
Curry powder, garlic powder, ginger,
food without the use of table salt. That’s not to
say the hubby hasn’t needed his condiments or lemon juice/zest, oregano, cumin
loads of cheese for his portions, but I think he’s
started to appreciate all the intricate flavors that
the herbs/spices add to dishes.
bell pepper
Chili powder, cumin, garlic powder,
balsamic vinegar, tahini
I introduced spices to Caleb from the very
beginning. When those times arise that he
doesn’t want to eat certain vegetables, if I
sprinkle some curry powder or cumin on top, he
carrots and parsnips
Cinnamon, coriander, cumin, curry powder,
will happily devour it. garlic powder, ginger, nutmeg

Here are some of our staples:


eggplants
Cheese (especially mozzarella, parmesan,
curry powder, cumin, ricotta), coriander, cumin, curry powder, garlic
powder, balsamic vinegar, oregano, tahini
oregano, smoked paprika,
Italian seasoning, broccoli
cinnamon, nutmeg, chili Cheese (especially parmesan), curry powder,
garlic powder, ginger, rosemary, orange juice/
powder, ginger, turmeric zest, nutmeg, parsley, oregano

caulif lower
Coriander, cumin, curry powder, garam masala
Cheese is also another ingredient I like to use
to add more flavor. However, it does contain
sodium, so if you’re being extra cautious, you
can totally leave it out of the recipes. Keep in
sweet potatoes
Cinnamon, nutmeg, cumin, curry powder, chili
mind, though, that the amount added is for powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder
the entire dish and the baby eats only a small
portion of it at a time. It does contribute a
textural component as well, but I’m really using butternut squash
Cayenne, cheese (especially cheddar and
it for the flavor boost.
parmesan), cinnamon, coriander, cumin,
curry powder, garlic powder, nutmeg, orange
juice/zest, balsamic vinegar

Food Storage
Whenever I bake, I always place half of the batch in the refrigerator to enjoy for the next
3 days or so and the rest in the freezer. There’s no doubt we could gobble up the whole
batch, but seeing my freezer stuffed with goodies brings me much joy and a sense of
accomplishment. It’s also nice knowing that I’ve got something for emergency situations
because life is full of surprises.

To freeze finger foods, first make sure they are


completely cooled. Then, I like to use the double
wrap method. I first wrap individual pieces tightly in
plastic wrap, and then I gather all of them and wrap
in aluminum foil. This provides a double layer of
protection. Then I place in a freezer container bag
that’s been labeled and dated, squeezing out as much
air out as possible before sealing it.

I suggest that you keep an inventory posted on your


refrigerator so that if your freezer is packed, you know
exactly what you have on hand and when you need to
enjoy them by (up to 3 months).

To freeze sauces, I like to use an ice cube tray or baby freezer food tray with a cover. This
way it’s all portioned out and you just have to pop a block out when ready to use!

Serving Suggestions
Refrigerated baked goods can be served cold or warmed a little bit in the microwave or
the toaster oven. I’ve found that Caleb prefers things cold a lot of times so I’ll just take
whatever he’ll be having out of the fridge about 5 minutes or so prior to serving. If I’m
using the microwave, I like to do so for no more than a minute, otherwise the item can
get a bit mushy.

For frozen food, I like to thaw in the refrigerator overnight. And similarly, I will either serve it
cold or reheat for no more than about a minute.

fellow dietitians, I especially
love how it’s broken down into
different months/stages with
tips and tricks specific to each.
It also provides sample menu
ideas as well as important
nutrients to consider at various
stages of development.

• Bumkins Silicone Grip Dish:


This is a must-have! It’s got a
strong suction base and is easy
to clean,dishwasher safe...need
I say more?

• Bumkins bibs: These are


seriously the best! I love that
they offer both short and long
sleeved versions. I say buy
several so you can rotate
through instead of having to wash after each use.

• Numnum inc: These “gootensils” are perfect for little hands. The handles are short and
sturdy. With their flat heads, there’s no need for scooping or balancing. If interested in
purchasing, use the code “calebthefoodie” for a 10% discount!

• Toddler spoons: Our favorites are from Kiddobloom and Kizingo. Kiddobloom is
stainless steel and has smooth edges that make it super safe for little ones! Kizingo
spoons have curved handles which make them easier to hold and scoop up food.
Caleb preferred Kizingo at first but does better with Kiddobloom now.

• Munchkin Weighted Straw Cup: I started serving water in this cup from the beginning,
and baby took to it really well! It’s perfect for milk/smoothies also.

• Water Wipes: I LOVE these wipes so so much! I use them to wipe his hands before and
after each meal. They’re fragrance and alcohol free and contain 99% water and just a
drop of fruit extract. Nice to take with us when we’re out and about, too.

• Stokke Tripp Trapp: What I love about this chair is that you can pull it right up to the
table so the baby truly joins us at mealtimes. It’s a bit on the pricier side but it’s well
worth the investment because it can be adjusted to your growing baby!

• Ingenuity chair: This chair is compact and super lightweight, which makes it perfect for
traveling! The tray store discreetly in the base of the chair and can be strapped easily
and tightly onto a chair. There’s a foam that provide extra cushioning and can be easily
removed as the child grows.

Kitchen tools:

• Parchment paper: I’ve recently been trying to minimize the use of aluminum foil when
cooking and this has been a wonderful alternative. I like that it’s unbleached and one of
the more affordable options that I’ve seen.

• Silpat: I love this product, too! The only downside is you have to clean it after each use,
but it’s very durable and a quality product!

• Silicone mini muffin pan: Love baking in silicone because there’s no need to grease it
and it makes cleanup a breeze! I solely use this to bake all of my muffins.

• Mini manual food chopper: I like to prep a lot while the baby is napping which makes
this appliance so crucial. It’s super quiet, lightweight, and powerful. I like that I can
easily take it with me anywhere.

• Freezer storage tray: When I make sauces, pesto, dips, etc, I like to store them in single
serving portions, and this tray is perfect for that! Once frozen solid, I just pop them right
out and store in a freezer safe bag.

Chili Stuffed Cornbread Muffins
Ingredients
DRY
• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• 1 cup finely ground cornmeal
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda

WET
• 1 cup milk of choice (I used unsweetened
almond milk)
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 2 tablespoons whole-fat plain
Greek yogurt
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
• Leftover Beef and Bean Chili

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 12 cup muffin pan (or use a silicone muffin pan) and
set aside. In a bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients. In another bowl, whisk together the wet
ingredients. Combine the dry and wet mixtures and mix until well incorporated.
2. Pour batter into a liquid measuring cup as this makes it easier to pour into the muffin cups. You
can also use a spoon to add batter into each cup.
3. Fill each muffin cup with batter about ⅓ of the way full. Spoon some chili into the center of each
cup of cornbread batter. Top the chili with more cornbread batter.
4. Place muffin pan in oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until inserted toothpick comes out clean.
5. Allow muffins to cool in the pan for about 5 minutes or
so and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Otherwise, they will get soggy.

Note:
Because of the nature of cornbread, it will get a
bit crumbly after freezing and thawing. When
reheating, be sure to microwave for no more than
30 seconds.

Lentil Walnut Bake

Ingredients
• 1 cup lentils (any kind; I used the
green variety)
• 3 cups water
• 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
• ½ cup walnuts
• Vegetables: 1 yellow onion, 1 medium
carrot, 1 medium zucchini, 4 ounces
mushrooms (button or portobello), 1
garlic clove
• 1 teaspoon oregano
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
• 2 eggs, beaten
• Optional toppings: no-salt-added tomato
sauce, cheddar cheese

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Cook lentils in water for about 25-30 minutes, until lentils are
tender. I like to do this the day before so it’s one less thing to do the day of.
2. Meanwhile, process ingredients in this order so you can keep using the food processor/blender
without having to wash every time - add oats to processor/blender and pulse until they’re the size/
texture of breadcrumbs. Transfer to a bowl. Pulse walnuts and transfer to the bowl as well.
3. Add vegetables to food processor/blender and pulse several times - be careful not to overprocess.
Then sauté them in a lightly oiled skillet over medium-high heat, about 5 minutes. Add seasonings
and tomato paste. Transfer to a large bowl.
4. Add oats, eggs, and cooked lentils into the large bowl and combine with cooked veggies. Press
mixture into a greased (or lined) 9x9 inch square pan. Spread tomato sauce on top and/or sprinkle
on some cheese, if you wish.
5. Bake for 40 minutes.

Butternut Squash Quinoa Cakes
Ingredients
• 1 cup cooked quinoa (I used
tricolor but you can use any kind -
see note)
• ½ cup old-fashioned rolled oats,
ground into flour
• ½ cup roughly chopped roasted
butternut squash
• ½ cup roughly chopped roasted
chopped brussels sprouts
• ¼ cup raw walnuts, finely
chopped
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped
apricots
• 2 eggs, beaten
• 3 tablespoons grated parmesan
(can add less or leave out)

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. For the vegetables - cut butternut squash into ½ inch cubes and brussels sprouts into halves. Toss
with oil and roast in the oven for 20-30 minutes, until tender. You need ½ cup of each chopped
veggie (see note).
3. Combine vegetables with rest of the ingredients. Shape ¼-cup portions into patties. Working with
wet hands will help. Bake for 10 minutes, flip, and bake for an additional 5-10 minutes until firm.

Notes: For the quinoa: You can use just the white ones as they’re more readily available. However,
the red and black ones do add a bit to the texture of the cakes, making them crispier and
more toothsome.

For the vegetables: Check the oven periodically as you may need to take out the brussels
sprouts earlier. You can use a food processor or blender to chop the roasted vegetables. I kept
the butternut squash a touch on the chunkier side, rather than mashing completely, for added
texture. Save the rest of the roasted vegetables to enjoy throughout the week! You can also
substitute these vegetables with whatever you have on hand.

2-Ingredient Dough

Ingredients
• 1 cup self-rising flour
• ½ cup whole-fat plain Greek yogurt

Directions
1. In a large bowl, mix together yogurt and flour. At first, dough will seem dry and crumbly, but keep
mixing until it forms into a ball. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead by hand
until it becomes smooth and slightly elastic, about 8 minutes. If dough feels too dry, add water a
tablespoon at a time until the right moisture level is reached. Use immediately or freeze.
2. To freeze, shape the dough into a ball, coat lightly in oil, and place into a freezer bag and seal,
squeezing out as much air as possible. If you’re putting multiple balls of dough into one bag,
use parchment or wax paper to separate them. Freeze for up to 3 months.
3. To thaw - Place in the refrigerator overnight.

Butternut Squash Macaroni Cups

Simply stirring in the creamy sauce with


pasta would be absolutely delicious, but
that could get pretty messy and wouldn’t
travel well. Enter these macaroni cups.
They’re super portable, and your little
one can enjoy all the flavors of the dish
without being covered in sauce.

Ingredients
• 1 cup Butternut Squash Cream Sauce
• 2 cups cooked elbow pasta
• 2 cups finely chopped broccoli
• 1 cup chopped cooked chicken
• 2 eggs, lightly beaten

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 12 cup muffin pan (or use a silicone muffin pan) and
set aside.
2. Cook pasta according to package directions.
3. In a large bowl, combine the sauce, pasta, broccoli, chicken, and eggs. Fill each muffin cup with
mixture. Bake for 25 minutes.

Banana Date Bread

Ingredients
• 1½ cups old-fashioned rolled oats
• 3 large ripe bananas
• ¾ cup dates (see note)
• 2 eggs
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Optional (I like to add them all):
3 tablespoons finely
chopped walnuts
1 tablespoon ground flaxseed
1 tablespoon chia seeds

Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan or line with parchment paper. Place
all ingredients (minus optional) into a food processor or blender and blend until smooth. Stir in
optional ingredients if using. Pour batter into pan. Bake for 30 minutes. It will still be pretty soft
at this point, so let it rest completely before slicing (I like to wait for about an hour). Refrigerate
or freeze.

Note: Soak the dates (I like to use 4-5 medjool dates) in warm water for about 30 minutes to help
soften them.

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• ½ medium onion, diced

• 1 red bell pepper, chopped
• 1 zucchini, chopped
• 2 medium carrots, peeled and chopped
• 1 pound lean ground beef (can omit if you
want to make it vegetarian)

smoked paprika, oregano

sauce
• 1 (15 ounce) can no-salt-added diced
tomatoes
• ½ cup water (or low-sodium broth
of choice)
• 1 (15 ounce) can no-salt-added kidney
beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 (15 ounce) can no-salt-added pinto
beans, rinsed and drained

Directions
1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven or large soup pot over medium heat. Add all the veggies and cook for 5-7
minutes, until soft.

3. Add tomato paste and seasonings, and stir to combine.
4. Add tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, water, and beans, and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to
simmer. Cook, uncovered, until the chili thickens, about 45 minutes or so. Stir occasionally so that
the chili doesn’t stick to the bottom. If it becomes too thick, add more water to achieve the desired
consistency.

Note: Once it’s done cooking, you can set some aside for the baby and season the rest to taste
with salt and pepper, if you wish.
