Peas are quite high in iron I think? Don't forget their milk does contain iron, granted not lots but it adds to it :)

Check out The Baby Dietician on Instagram. She's got some great posts on iron and recommended meals. She's really made me think about how to balance a meal for baby. Now I try to think "fat, iron, vit C" but her posts on meals will help so much. Super useful, science-backed information. Sounds like bub is getting a good balance so don't worry too much
