Make the recipe as instructed but follow these omissions/substitutions:
Only use a small pinch of chili flakes and omit the salt.
Use frozen chopped spinach and sodium-free beef broth.
When choosing a pasta, make sure to look for one that has been iron-fortified. Just look for iron on the Nutrition Facts label!
Once the dish has been made, remove some for baby. Then stir in the salt for the older family members!
Since this recipe uses smaller macaroni noodles, this will work best for a baby 9 months and older!
