Quick! Help! Is this ok? food for toddler

[Winter]

We have friends someing over in an hour and they have 21 month olds.

I have made a plate of cut up capscium, carrot, pita chips and I made a dip by dizzy-whizzing up a can of baked beans.

Is this ok for almost 2 year olds??

TIA

Hmmmm, not sure about the carrot. Is it raw? Maybe steam it a bit...I think even at that age raw carrot can be a choking hazard, don't quote me on that though. ( I don't have a very good memory). The rest sounds great though.

Yep! My DS2 is 21 months old and would happily eat that

True! Ha ha ha

Oh well, will just have to see if they eat it!

Thanks for your replies Marlene & Trish

Just wanted to let you know that it was actually a bit of a hit.

The kids (and parents!) liked the dip and my DH thought it was pretty good too. I liked that I was serving up something healthy in a fun way.

Thanks for replying though girls, I was worried about it at the last minute!!

Yayyyy!! I was waiting to hear how it went! (Yes, I need a life, LOL).
How did the little one go with the raw carrot?....for my future reference.

No dramas at all with the carrot! Everybody like the baked bean dip though and I am secretly proud that I thought of making a dip out of them!
