Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 1 h

Step 1:
Prepare the ingredients. To cook a turkey with zucchini in the oven, we will need: 400 g turkey fillet; 300 g zucchini; 50 g tomatoes; 1 clove of garlic; 2 tbsp vegetable oil; ground black pepper and salt to taste.
Step 2:
Wash the turkey fillet, dry it and cut into small pieces.
Step 3:
Wash the zucchini and cut into semicircles or circles if the diameter of the vegetables is small.
Step 4:
Wash the tomatoes, dry them and cut them into slices. I used cherry tomatoes, which I cut in half.
Step 5:
Peel and finely chop the garlic.
Step 6:
Combine turkey, zucchini tomatoes and garlic in a bowl.
Step 7:
Pour 1 tbsp vegetable oil over the vegetables, add salt, pepper and mix.
Step 8:
Grease the baking dish with vegetable oil. Put the meat and vegetables in it. Bake the turkey with zucchini for about 40 minutes at 180 ° C.
Step 9:
Turkey with zucchini is ready. Bon appetit!

In addition to the listed vegetables, you can add some carrots and potatoes to the dish.
In addition to baking in the oven, turkey with zucchini can be put out in a frying pan, saucepan, cauldron or in a slow cooker with the addition of a small amount of water or broth. And also fry.
If you cut everything into small pieces, then this dish is suitable for small children from 8-9 months, when it's time to teach them to eat pieces in addition to various purees. However, in this case, it is better not to add a tomato (if there is an allergy) or replace it with some other non-allergenic vegetable, such as potatoes.
My child's vegetable purees from zucchini broccoli and cauliflower are still loved, although he is already 7 years old, and from meat - turkey. He loves them from infancy. Therefore, when it came time to switch to a more solid food, I chose this combination. However, it was not baked in an open form, since the meat on top acquires a slightly hard crust, which is difficult for a child to chew with his miniature teeth, but baked either in a pot in broth or stewed in a frying pan.
