Name: Chicken Nuggies & Salmon Lentil Patties - Build a Plate Edition
Prep time: 5 min
Total time: 5 min
Yield: 1
Ingredients: 1 zucchini, cut into quarters lengthwise (spears around the size of two adult fingers pressed together); extra virgin olive oil to drizzle on zucchini; 1/2 tbsp plain breadcrumbs; ¼ tsp Italian herb blend; 2 x Salmon Lentil Patties Finger Food; 3 x Chicken Nuggies Finger Food; 3 tbsp plain Greek yoghurt; 1 tbsp lemon juice; ¼ tsp garlic powder; ¼ tsp dried dill

This feel-good and nourishing plate brings together familiar favourites and nutritious whole foods in a way that’s comforting, balanced and toddler-approved. Crispy Chicken Nuggies pair beautifully with wholesome Salmon Lentil Patties, served alongside soft olive oil–roasted zucchini spears and a creamy homemade tartar sauce made just for little taste buds.

Designed for self-feeding, dipping and exploring, this plate encourages independence at mealtime while offering a variety of textures and flavours without overwhelming tiny tummies. It’s quick to prepare and perfect for toddler snacks or as a relaxed family meal.

This meal features high-quality protein from the chicken, salmon and lentils which help to support bub’s growth and muscle development. The salmon in this recipe is rich in omega-3 fatty acids which play an important role in brain development whilst the fibre from the lentils and zucchini supports gentle digestion and eases constipation. Additionally, the Greek yoghurt contains calcium & probiotics to support strong bones and maintain a happy gut.

Directions

Preheat the oven to 220°C and line a baking tray with a baking sheet.
Line up zucchini spears next to each other (with the skin side down) on a baking tray. Tip: Lining them up so they are touching helps to catch most of the breadcrumbs and herbs.
Drizzle spears with olive oil, breadcrumbs and Italian herb blend.
Place in the oven along with the salmon lentil patties and chicken nuggies and bake for 10 mins. Leave the zucchini on for an additional 10-15 minutes, until the zucchini is soft but not soggy.
To make tartar sauce, use a fork to mix the yoghurt, lemon juice, garlic powder and dill.
Assemble plate with salmon lentil patties, chicken nuggies, zucchini spears and tartar sauce.

Recipe Note

This recipe is suitable from 8-9 months once bub has begun showing signs of pincer grasp (picking up objects between their thumb and index finger).
Suitable only after wheat (from Chicken Nuggies & if using breadcrumbs that have wheat), fish (from Salmon Lentil Patties) and dairy (from yoghurt) have been successfully introduced into bub’s diet.
To add variety, serve with hummus, guacamole or tomato sauce as a dipping sauce.
Make thetartar sauce dairy-free by using a plain thick and tart vegan yoghurt.
Alternatively, use roasted veggies like broccoli or sweet potato to pair with this meal.
