    När ditt barn har fyllt ett år kan det i stort sett äta samma mat som resten av familjen. Nu grundläggs de matvanor som ofta följer med långt upp i livet. De här råden kan hjälpa er på vägen till goda vanor.

    Kostråd 1-2 år

    Frukost och mellanmål:

    En bra näringsrik frukost kan till exempel bestå av något eller några av dessa:

    • Fil eller yoghurt med müsli eller osötade flingor
    • Gröt med mjölk
    • Smörgås och mjölk
    • En mugg välling
    Och gärna en bit frukt eller grönsak.

    I en del kulturer äter man rester från middagsmaten till frukost och det går förstås lika bra.

    Eftersom små barn inte orkar äta så mycket vid varje måltid är mellanmålen viktigare för barn än för vuxna. Ett näringsrikt mellanmål kan bestå av samma typ av mat som frukosten. Om man fortsätter att amma är också bröstmjölk ett bra litet mellanmål som ger många näringsämnen, bland annat omega-3-fett. Bullar, kakor, glass och andra söta produkter bidrar inte med så mycket näring, men däremot med mycket socker. Därför är det klokt att spara dem till speciella tillfällen.

    Lunch och middag:

    Med lagad mat både till lunch och middag är det lättare att täcka små barns behov av näring. En tumregel för att få till det är att varje dag servera något från varje livsmedelsgrupp:
    • Potatis, pasta, ris, bulgur, couscous och bröd ger bra kolhydrater och fibrer, men också viktiga mineraler och vitaminer, som järn och folat (folsyra).
    • Kött, fisk, kyckling, ägg, bönor, linser och tofu är viktiga källor till protein, vitaminer och mineraler. Kött, bönor och tofu är bra källor till järn.
    • Grönsaker, rotfrukter, frukt och bär innehåller mycket vitaminer och andra skyddande ämnen, men också fibrer.
    • Mjölk, fil, yoghurt och vegetabiliska drycker, som berikad havre- och sojadryck är viktiga källor till kalcium och många andra mineraler och vitaminer.
    • Olja och flytande matfett till matlagning är viktiga källor till nyttiga fetter. Om maten är mager kan barnet behöva lite extra fett i sin portion.

    Vänj ditt barn vid att dricka vatten eller mjölk till maten. Använd kallvatten och spola tills vattnet är kallt, även när du tar vatten till matlagning. Varmt kranvatten kan bland annat innehålla koppar från ledningarna.

    Hemlagat eller färdiglagat?

    Många tycker det är roligt att laga mat medan andra kanske inte är så vana vid matlagning. Att laga bra mat för små barn behöver inte vara svårt. På webben och i kokböcker finns många bra och enkla recept du kan ta hjälp av. Det finns också en hel del halvfabrikat och färdigrätter som passar även små barn.
    Vissa är tveksamma till industrilagad mat för att den ibland innehåller mer tillsatser än hemlagad. Då är det bra att veta att alla tillsatser som används i livsmedel är vetenskapligt bedömda och godkända och säkra för både barn och vuxna. Däremot kan man behöva se upp så att produkterna inte innehåller mycket salt eller socker. Välj gärna nyckelhålsmärkt mat – den innehåller mindre salt och socker.
