From +4 months

Is watercress healthy for children?

Watercress is a leafy green that's actually packed with nutrients. It's very low in calories but contains an impressive amount of vitamin K, as well as a good amount of vitamins A and C. Watercress is also incredibly rich in antioxidants that help protect your little one's body.

How to serve watercress

You can serve watercress raw (as part of a salad or as decoration) or cooked (in purees or soups). Always wash well before serving.
