🌱 Why is it nourishing?
Peas are a hypoallergenic springtime ingredient rich in plant-based protein, iron, and vitamin C. Their fibre content supports digestion and gut health, while vitamin K contributes to healthy bone development. That beautiful bright green colour also helps stimulate your baby's colour perception and sense of excitement around new flavours.
