      My son is having constipation problem since birth. Doctor has advised to give him palak soup. Now he is 2years old. Let me try giving him this. I hope he likes it. He is a very poor eater!!

      Will update if he likes it. Thanks for the recipe. I was searching for a proper palak soup recipe for kids.

        If you have already introduced spinach to baby and no issues, then you can give this. otherwise, I would recommend from 10 months

      My 10 month old baby doesn't like savory food since salt cannot be added. Can i add any sweet food like apple or banana with spinach to make him eat it.
