How to offer

Fan strips on the high chair tray. Always supervise during feeding. At 12 months, baby can manage these mini wraps independently. Ensure tortilla is very soft throughout — not dry or stiff at the edges.

Storage

Refrigerate assembled strips for up to 1 day. Best assembled fresh to prevent tortilla becoming soggy.

Nutrition note

Vitamins B6 and B12, iron, zinc, choline, selenium, and vitamin B3 are just a few of the elements found in chicken that babies require to survive. When taken as a whole, these nutrients support antioxidant functions, provide energy for cells, produce healthy blood, support a keen sense of taste and smell, and improve brain health.
