The best part of making your own baby food; coming up with new and fun recipes! Here are a couple that my daughter just loves! Make sure to boil all hard foods to make them soft for pureeing. To make the puree thinner, use the water you boiled with or use your breast milk. With any recipe, feel free to sneak in beets or spinach. I do!
Sweet Potato "Pie"
Use any amount of sweet potatoes you want. Boil them to get them soft then put them in the bullet. Add a little cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. Puree. Enjoy! Simple as that!
Apple Dessert
Boil slices of apples and steal cut oats. Add in cinnamon, nutmeg, and vanilla. If your little one is just starting solids, I would puree it. If not, leave it chunky.
Thanksgiving Dinner
Boil potatoes, your choice of chicken, and green beans. Add in a little spice like chili powder to add a boost flavor. Puree all three items in the bullet. Of course, you can change out green beans for maybe peas.
Just Carrots
Simple as that, just boil and puree carrots.
Butternut Squash
Boil the squash, add a little apple juice in the bullet and puree.
Sweet Addict
Boil, pears, apples, and peaches. Add any spices and puree.
Go Bananas
Puree bananas.
Tropical Paradise
Boil kiwi, peaches. Puree and add bananas
Biscuits and Gravy, without the biscuits :P
Make a gravy of your choice and add little bits a meat such as ground beef or sausage. Great for breakfast
Here are some great fruits to use together. Add them to yogurt or steal cut oats, or puree them just as it. Another great idea with fruits, bake them! Great for finger foods:
