Introducing ‘big’ tomatoes 

Author:


Cherry tomatoes are a firm ‘love it’ food again now. However big or normal tomatoes are a ‘learning it’ food. 
I’ve only recently started giving them to the the girls. We’ve been having cherry tomatoes since about 7 months and I hadn’t really considered normal tomatoes as being any different for them. However when you really think about it they actually look & taste slightly different and gave a very different texture so it’s understandable that they need to be thought of as another food to be introduced to. 
We had a family roast at lunch today so more of a salad mezze for tea. 
Some giant olives and pickled garlic & ginger which I got at Porthleven food festival yesterday (lots of fun & delicious food), a boiled egg, a couple of sticks of cucumber, a little avocado and some bread with cream cheese. Oh and a little dollop of humous.
