Broccoli and Cheese Macaroni

Broccoli is known as a superfood as it is an excellent source of vitamin C. The cheese and macaroni complement this dish making it high in calcium, vitamins, and minerals. What is it for? Broccoli offers benefits to protect your baby's immune system, improve cardiovascular health, and strengthen their bones. Adding a teaspoon of grated fresh cheese to your little one's food helps separate the proteins to make them more digestible, and the calcium it provides helps strengthen the bones.
