Homemade Toddler Meal

  • Cook Time: 15 minutes

What you'll need

  • 8 oz. soba noodles, cooked and drained

  • ¼ red pepper, cut into small strips

  • ¼ orange pepper, cut into small strips

  • ¼ yellow pepper, cut into small strips

  • 1 Tbsp. sesame oil

How to make it:

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the noodles and bell pepper strips
  2. In a small saucepan over low heat, warm the sunflower seed butter and the sesame oil, sitting occasionally, until heated through. (alternatively, combine the sunflower seed butter and sesame oil in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave at full power until heated through, 10-20 seconds).

  4. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
